This file is not in the correct proportions. It is required to change them to the correct ones. 900*600px → 900*450px (2:1). ~ Starship Trooper ~ 14:37, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)
@STARSHIP TROOPER: this flag is used very often, ratio never changed from 3:2 within 15 years - why do you think it should be changed now? perhaps you should discuss first at File_talk:Flag_of_Russia.svg or at ru:Обсуждение:Флаг_России --Mrmw (talk) 17:20, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
Mistake. I looked at the information about the flag in the wrong source. Confusion because of File:Flag of Russia (2-1).svg. The topic flag display problem is related to the Template inside ru-wiki. Close the topic. ~ Starship Trooper ~ 18:00, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia 20 wiki-pt svg files

Article(s):None

Request
Hi. I am making the .svg images/files for Wikipedia 20 for Portuguese Wikipedia. I made all the edits using Inkscape. For some reason, though, the 'preview' of the .svg shows black icons, or deformed images in some cases. When you 'open' them, the problem disappears. What is causing this, and is there a fix for this? If this is too time consuming, I can export to .png, although I do prefer to use the .svg files instead. Thanks! Tetizeraz.

Uploaded SVG rendered as a black square

Article(s): en:Languages used on the Internet, en:English Wikipedia, en:French Wikipedia, en:Russian Wikipedia, en:Arabic Wikipedia, en:Spanish Wikipedia, en:Portuguese Wikipedia, en:German Wikipedia, etc.

Request
Hi, I posted in the help desk and was told to ask here.
I uploaded this SVG file. It appears as a black square on Wikimedia and on all resized PNG and SVG files. However, the original file is displayed correctly. Then, I decided to edit an existing map instead, unfortunately: similar issue. I say similar because this time I can see the background map at least. The original file is still OK. Thanks for any help you can provide :) A455bcd9 (talk) 12:15, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
I generated the map with this code, based on the pygal Python module. A455bcd9 (talk) 12:20, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

@A455bcd9: ✓ Done i cleaned and rebuilt your file - let me know if you are satisfied --Mrmw (talk) 20:49, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
@Mrmw: Hi, thanks a lot, it's perfect! I want to generate other similar files (by language, with the % of readership by country for instance) and also to update this one regularly. Could you please describe how you cleaned and rebuilt? Or do you have resources on this? I don't want to bother the workshop each time I upload a file :) A455bcd9 (talk) 22:47, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
@A455bcd9: in this case i used inkscape and notepad - perhaps your tool is not the best to create svg-files for wiki - how many files will you create? --Mrmw (talk) 08:25, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
@Mrmw: Hi, I don't know any other tool to build an SVG map in Python unfortunately. I tried https://geopandas.org/ , it seems better but it creates PNG files, not SVG. So I may upload PNG in the future. I want to do about 10 files. If there's a simple process you're following with inkscape and notepad to clean/rebuild, let me know and I'll do it. A455bcd9 (talk) 15:18, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

@A455bcd9: i have no tutorial for you, i am sorry - i do this kind of job with try and error - i wont rebuild ten files for you - perhaps another user - i recommend to use other tools for creating your svgs --Mrmw (talk) 21:17, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

OK thanks, no worries, I'll find a way, thanks again for your help! A455bcd9 (talk) 21:21, 7 February 2021 (UTC) 
@A455bcd9: In one instance when my entire result was black, I learned that there were improper spaces inserted between quotes fill="#6baed6 " (instead of fill="#6baed6" as it should have been). Of course, it might be other things in your file's case. The following SVG tests may be useful in determining problems before they're uploaded:

@MaxxL: This image you uploaded on WCommons comes from this source from 2003, so it being on WCommons is a violation of WCommons' policies. I strongly suggest you speedy delete it from WCommons and re-host it somewhere else. Veverve (talk) 10:24, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

✓ Done A quick attempt at it, since I am rather busy. My original upload had curved texts for some of the labels, but librsvg apparently doesn't support that apparently. Text rendering in general seems somewhat buggy at smaller sizes, though. Tom-L (talk) 11:04, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
@Tom-L: thank you for your work. However I have some slight remarks:
  1. you forgot "Portals" on the left.
  2. the "Upper Seas or" "Water above Firmament" should be arced, higher, and on the same line, roughtly like this. Do not change anything else other than making them arced, higher, and on the same line.
  3. there is a crack here which should be filled.
Veverve (talk) 13:58, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
As I've said, the curved (or arced) text is not supported by librsvg (which is what Wikimedia Commons uses to render SVGs). Changing the text to paths would render it ineditable.
I didn't see the point of indicating every instance of portals and windows. I've addressed the crack. Tom-L (talk) 23:02, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Map of schisms from the Russian Orthodox Church

Here is the rought draft I made I would like someone to make it clearer, preferably in SVG format. I know my draft is in complete disarray, so do not hesitate to ask if you have any question. I made my draft as I went, and therefore it is very confusing, so please when you remake it into an SVG, do not remake it faithfully, rather make it clearer and more organised.

Article(s): en:True Orthodoxy, en:Russian Orthodox Church

Request
The type of timeline I want is inspired from File:SaintThomasChristian'sDivisionsHistoryFinal-en.svg. My sources are articles from the OrthodoxWiki for each of those churches as well as ru:Истинно-православная церковь, fr:Église des catacombes, this, and this. --Veverve (talk) 07:38, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

  • I will have to look more in detail on your image but what I can see now is that the timeline can not be linear, is that fine with you?
  • Does it have to look like your image or if I find something similar it might be fine with you?
  • Are the colors you picked important or I can change them if I need?
  • You really will have to explain to me as we work on this.

 Request taken by Goran tek-en (talk) 15:33, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: Thanks for taking my request.
I would like for this timeline to be linear. What else do you propose?
I would need to see on a case by case basis what you propose.
You can change the colours if you want.
Ok, I will explain whatever you request.
Veverve (talk) 15:48, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
Veverve I probably used the wrong word maybe not proportional is better, not the same distance between years every where. --Goran tek-en (talk) 16:27, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: You can use whatever proportion you like. As I said, you can do anything to make the timeline more readable, my draft is in complete disarray so feel free to deviate from it so long as you keep all the information. 18:03, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Veverve (talk)

Veverve I will try to work from the latest image, but what is the green line square, can you explain that? --Goran tek-en (talk) 10:47, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: it is not a square, it is two churches which merged at one point. The line above is the w:Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church which was founded in 1921, dissolved in the 1936, refounded in 1942, dissolved in 1944, and refounded again in 1990. The line below is the UOC-KP, founded in 1992. Both merged in 15 December 2018 into the w:Orthodox Church of Ukraine, and some members of the UOC-KP left in June 2019 to refound the UOC-KP. Veverve (talk) 11:05, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Veverve Now there is a first Draft-1. In this draft you should check the lines and the info on them. Don't pay any attention to exactly how things look, that will come after this. --Goran tek-en (talk) 12:07, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: fantastic job! Here is my feedback:
  1. "Seraphimo" should be replaced by "Seraphimo-Guennadite branch of the True Orthodox Church" in full, in bold, and all on the same line. The "Gennadievskian branch of the True Orthodox church" should be removed. You mut put "Cat." above the name of the church.
  2. could you put a "?" here? It is to show there is doubts this church comes from the Russian Orthodox Church.
  3. a "September 2006" point should be put, with "ROCOR (V-V)" thereafter. I believe we will add the explanations as to why it is using this name in a box below the timeline.
  4. https://imgur.com/a/mh5S059 a space is missing between the "x" and the "C"
  5. "Ukrainian Orthodox Church" should be "Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Kyiv Patriarchate" in full and on one line.
  6. https://imgur.com/a/l6y4BYH should be "Unification council of the Eastern Orthodox churches of Ukraine", as it is the name of the WP article.
  7. https://imgur.com/a/arNDIOG should be "Signing of the Act of Canonical Communion". The date for the signing should be put for "2007 17 May", as I made a mistake in the date.
  8. https://imgur.com/a/NnzCW6i the "in exile" should also be in bold.
  9. the second "UAOC" here is redundant and should be removed.
  10. "founder Met. Agathangelos" should be "headed by Met. Agathangelos" (my bad)

@Goran tek-en: : "Would it not be better to put out the ? after the year, there is both and here." I believe it is fine the way it is currently.
  1. https://imgur.com/a/wFj3ExS there is 2 spaces between the "x" and the "C", there should be only one space.
  2. https://imgur.com/a/VInI01P, https://imgur.com/a/Uofc3HU and https://imgur.com/a/VInI01P should not be in bold.
  3. "Renamed into Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church" should be "Later renamed into Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church" with "Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church" in bold. Also add, not in bold, after "Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church": ", a.k.a. "Suzdal schism", or "Valentine's Church" after Met. Valentine (Rusantsov) of Suzdal and Vladimir"
  4. "Ukrainian Greek Church" should be "Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church"
  5. the 1995 point should be "1994/1995"

Veverve Draft-3. --Goran tek-en (talk) 19:52, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: the 2001 point should be on this line, not on the Russian Orthodox Church line.
https://imgur.com/a/oRsWsUZ should be "Provisional Supreme Church Authority, headed by Met. Agathangelos (ROCOR-A)"
https://imgur.com/a/VInI01P, https://imgur.com/a/Uofc3HU and https://imgur.com/a/VInI01P should not be in bold. Veverve (talk) 20:12, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

  2. What are the dashed dark grey lines?
  3. Texts legend
  4. 15 May 2007, 15 Dec 2018 is to me different and I have marked them with a symbol. If you don't want them just tell me.
  5. September 2006, should it have a different color?
  6. In the texts on the lines I can't find *?
  7. I know it's not the best place for the legend but I try to keep the overall size of the illustration to fit a screen when viewed in 100%. All screens are different so it's hard to say which size is most common, I know. --Goran tek-en (talk) 11:05, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en:
  1. Shouldn't 1666-67 and 1920 be the same color?
No. I made a mistake in my original draft.
  1. What are the dashed dark grey lines?
I found no better way to represent the fact that Canadian and USA parishes of the UAOC left the UAOC to join a mainstream church (the Ecumenical Patriarchate).
  1. Texts legend
  2. 15 May 2007, 15 Dec 2018 is to me different and I have marked them with a symbol. If you don't want them just tell me.
It is a good symbol to show that they merged together.
  1. September 2006, should it have a different color?
there should be no donut for September 2006. Rather there should be a tombstone, see https://imgur.com/a/PqXtWmM
  1. In the texts on the lines I can't find *?
I have removed it. Can you change in the diagram "**" and "***" to "[1]" and "[2]"?
  1. I know it's not the best place for the legend but I try to keep the overall size of the illustration to fit a screen when viewed in 100%. All screens are different so it's hard to say which size is most common, I know.
It workd for me.
Remarks:
  1. https://imgur.com/a/8W6rRTx both should be in the colour of mainstream E. Orthodox churches.
  2. https://imgur.com/a/OLMAZ6u the legend should be "Old Believers"
  3. https://imgur.com/a/FoGtD9f -> "Claims to" (typo)
  4. here are some changes which must be done: https://imgur.com/a/mMLLCQC
  5. another change needed: the addition of "September 2006: death of Met. Vitaly (Ustinov); bishop Vladimir (Tselischev) becomes senior bishop of the Church and is commemorated during the liturgies, hence the informal name "ROCOR (V-V)" " in the notes. Can you also change "**" and "***" in the notes with "[1]" and "[2]"? See https://imgur.com/a/MU8vFTb
  6. https://imgur.com/a/jhrcdz1 should be in yellow; its current colour is to be removed from the legend.
Veverve Draft-6. --Goran tek-en (talk) 18:35, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: the Orthodox Church of Ukraine line should be in the Mainstream E. Orthodox Church colour. Also, you forgot a " after 'informal name "ROCOR (V-V)' Veverve (talk) 18:47, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
Veverve Draft-7. Regarding the ". I removed the one left because we (I) haven't used "" anywhere else. --Goran tek-en (talk) 09:51, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: https://imgur.com/a/DRy83V9 should be "Orthodox churches" (typo). Also, I cannot zoom as the background of the image becomes black when I do, and the images downloaded are on a black background, which was not the case before. I do not know what to put for the legend of this. Veverve (talk) 10:00, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: no problem.
https://imgur.com/a/hGA06fM should be "Orthodox churches" instead of "Orthodoxc hurches".
the following change should be made: https://imgur.com/a/K07E9bs; accordingly, the "X" and the "||||||" should be removed from the legend. Veverve (talk) 10:44, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Flag of Morocco

 Request taken by MapGrid (talk) 03:25, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Article(s): en:Flag of Morocco

Request
Hello. Can some vexillologist please check if File:Flag of Morocco.svg is correctly represented? Many in the discussion page think that the current star is smaller that it should be. As per official text «The star is inscribed in an invisible circle whose radius equals one sixth (1/6) of the flag's length». So, what do you think? --Flaspec (talk) 18:57, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)
I don't usually get involved here, but I thought I would chime in today.
The fly is 600px. Thus the radius of the star (measured to its outer points) should be 100px. The radius of the star in the current file is roughly 99.3px. That is a 0.7% error. It is the sort of error that annoys me but it is not likely to be noticed by somebody staring at the flag.
Also, The Wikipedia page "Flag of Morocco" says: "The width of each one of the branches of the star shall be 1/20 of its length". I will assume that the length should be measured between two star tips, thus the length of each of the five lines should be approximately 190.21px (assuming a radius of 100). Thus the width of each line should be 190.21/20=9.51px. Current width is 14.62993431px which is 53.8% thicker than it should be. MapGrid (talk) 23:20, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
The following code provides a flag that honours the 1/6 and 1/20 specification to a reasonably high degree of accuracy. I can't replace the current flag because I don't have permission.

</svg>

MapGrid (talk) 23:39, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

@MapGrid Acually the fly is 900px. I reviewed the source in French, it reads "le rayon est égal au 1/6 du battant" which translates to "the radius is equal to 1/6 of horizontal length". The word Battant (Fly) is synonymous with horizontal length as per this official source [11] and also this Wikipedia article. Can you please rewrite the code based on this? --Flaspec (talk) 01:11, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
@Flaspec Yes, you are absolutely correct. This puts the radius at 150px, the line length at 285.32px, and the line width at 14.27px.MapGrid (talk) 02:38, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I uploaded the flag as File:Flag of Morocco (2021 revamp).svg. Have a look and let me know if it looks right. Oddly enough, it looks very similar to File:Flag of Morocco-2005.svg.MapGrid (talk) 02:56, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

@MapGrid This is the correct SVG rendering of the official text, indeed it looks exactly like the real thing (source). Can you create a construction sheet (model) to summarize all this? --Flaspec (talk) 03:18, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
If it can wait until Saturday then I am willing to do a construction sheet!MapGrid (talk) 03:25, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
@MapGrid Okey I will wait, you can use this construction sheet as a model (vexilla-mundi). I also requested unprotection in order to replace the current flag. --Flaspec (talk) 03:30, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
I have created a new construction sheet. Instead of uploading the image with a previously unused filename, I took the liberty of overwriting the existing content of File:Flag of Morocco (construction).svg. The old diagram did not indicate the line thickness; also it showed star dimensions which were not mathematically possible to achieve without warping the star.
The new diagram attempts to show how the line thickness of the star is derived. Unfortunately the line thickness will always be an irrational number (until it is rounded to some arbitray number of digits).
Note that the construction sheet on vexilla-mundi is scaled by 21 which results in a line thickness of 1.9972186842198…, but it is labeled as being exactly 2.

Request
Can some vexillologist please update the current pentagram to match the description in FOTW «1:2 red swallow-tailed flag bordered on all sized with a yellow border containing a yellow fimbriated green pentagram in the middle. The border width seems to be 1/10 of the hoist. The star is rather large, inscribed in a circle that seems to be with diameter 2/3 of the hoist. The yellow fimbriation clearly shows how the pentagram is formed of five ticks (check marks, shapes of the number "1")». --Flaspec (talk) 14:39, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)

I might as well do this one too.  Request taken by MapGrid (talk) 16:47, 10 January 2021 (UTC).

I have replaced the image at File:Naval Jack of Morocco.svg.
  • The yellow diagonals on the right side of the flag now have a width that matches the other three sides (10% of hoist).
  • The star is now interlaced.
  • The star is inscribed in an imaginary circle 2/3 of the hoist. It was not clear if the fimbriation should have been inside or outside the cirle, I placed them inside such that the yellow tips touch the circle.
  • The thickness of the green lines is set to 1/20 of length of a "branch". I considered the length of a branch to be the distance between two opposite points (including the fimbriation).
  • The fimbriations are a bit thicker than what is shown at FOTW. FOTW does not explicitly define a width, but it shows razor thin lines in the image. There is no point in including thin lines on any flag because they become invisible at even a short distance. I set the width of the fimbriations to 25% of the width of the green lines; this is the same proportion used in the recent version of File:Royal Flag of Morocco.svg uploaded by User:Flaspec.
One question: Does this jack exist in the real world? MapGrid (talk) 07:53, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
@MapGrid: First of all thanks a bunch for the time you invested in this request, as for your question the FOTW is the only source I know of displaying this jack, Moroccan navy seem to use File:Naval Ensign of Morocco.svg as shown in these pictures [12][13][14][15][16]. --Flaspec (talk) 12:46, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Image request - State of Vietnam / South Vietnam

Article(s): en:Emblem of Vietnam (after discussion).

I recently found the coat of arms of the State of Vietnam and the first coat of arms of South Vietnam on an old passport issued by the country. Currently on Wikimedia Commons there exists the second image which is different in several ways.
I do not want to request a replacement of "File:Coat of Arms of South Vietnam (1954 - 1955).svg" with a new image, rather I am requesting for the creation for two new images, one being a version of the coat of arms depicted on the passport but with the colour scheme of the image on the right in the middle and one of "a golden outline" (basically the image from the passport but without the red background), both in SVG. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 23:14, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: Wow, thanks, it looks great. Though the Chinese dragon should probably be rotated a bit so it looks as if it's standing straight. I was comparing it to other dragons such as the Druk and the Lung / Loong, and I thought that the Manchu Qing Dynasty dragon comes slightly closer (the Thunder Dragon didn't have the correct tail plum or claws), but just rotating the current Vietnamese dragon (Long) a little bit will work well. Perhaps the dragon should also be slightly bigger.

  • @Goran tek-en: , excuse me, I should have clarified it in the original request, I want the coat of arms and not the (Presidential) seal, you can remove the circles from around the CoA and make the dragons either gold/yellow or green, probably upload a version of both as I have found contradictory statements on historical articles and I can't find the South Vietnamese law ⚖ that specifies how the greater coat of arms looked. But it looks really good, just no need for the circles.

Donald Trung If this is not correct you have to tell me which part should have which color. Draft-3. --Goran tek-en (talk) 11:14, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , if possible the dragons in the colours of "File:Flag of Bao Dai (1948-1955).svg" and the flame red, while the plateau below yellow. The shield in this draft looks really good and the dragons are almost right, just the eyes, horns, moustaches, claws, Etc. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:51, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
Donald Trung Now this begins to be strange for me.
  • You have provided a source that is just one color, red, and at a very poor resolution. Even the second source is not very good.
  • You have given me different colors you wanted the dragons to be in at different times. To my understanding it has been one color for the whole dragon all the time.
  • Now you are saying you want the dragons to be colored and much more in detail.
  • When I started with this I went by your information "one color, based on the first source". And from that information I started to work in a specific way.
  • Now you are asking for something totally different which means I would have to start all over but I don't have the sources for that. I need a better source.
  • So before doing anything else I need you to REALLY think of what you want. Write it down in a short specific text where you describe it so I (someone with out your knowledge) can understand it. If you want more details you have to find better sources which we are allowed to use regarding copyright. I hope you understand my point of view as a graphic worker, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 11:30, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , I fully understand, at the time I wasn't aware of the presidential standard and only the shield (which depicted the dragons in a wrong colour). So my request evolved as I gained more knowledge and I should have made the request only after I had acquired the full information. I will upload the presidential standard to Wikimedia Commons so you can use it as a good reference point. As far as I know there isn't more to the coat of arms as what I have managed to find. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 17:34, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: , it is probably best to upload Draft-3. as it is the best of what I can find online. If I would find a better example of the greater coat of arms I would have shared it, but until I can go back again to the Museum of Vietnamese history in Tp. Ho Chi Minh I will probably not be able to find a better example, as this was all that I could find online.

Donald Trung The categories you gave was from wikipedia, it is not always the same as here at commons but this time they existed here also.
I added "Illustration of" in the description as that is what it is. This is not an exact drawing depicting that coat of arm.
That is also why I have the license I have. This is a free (not absolutely thru) illustration of the original. The original might have those licenses but not this illustration.

But it's the same seal as was used, the differences in design is just artist interpretation and as you can see Goran tek-en did an amazing job with the limited information provided. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 00:08, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Seal of French Indochina

Article(s): en:French Indochina, en:Emblem of Vietnam, Etc.

Request
From what I can find French Indochina had its own seal where the en:Great Seal of France, which consists of a seated version of Lady Liberty with fasces was adapted for en:French Cochinchina and en:French Indochina.

According to this Dutch website: "The symbols for agriculure, the arts and science were replaced by a sheaf of rice. On the right side the branches of oak were replaced by an anchor (as, initially, the colony was under the supervision of the Ministry of the Navy and the Colonies) and the cock on the rudder disappeared. Also, and of some symbolic importance, the urn symbolizing General Suffrage was omitted.".

Now this is also the version of the great seal that appeared on coins that circulated in French Indochina. I cannot find a version of this image on Wikimedia Commons, but as far as I can tell it was actually more commonly used than the emblem of the government-general. (copied from: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/1011003753...1011005816 after realising that this could be better requested here).

My request would be a recreation of the seal, I will try to find better contemporary examples of the seal if it's too difficult for an illustrator. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:45, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Additional comments

I updated the Wikipedia description to be:

The en:Great Seal of France with minor localisations. On the colonial seal a sheaf of rice replaces the traditional French symbols for agriculture (a sheaf of wheat), the arts (painter's tools), and science (burning lamp). On the right side of the seal the branches of oak were replaced by an anchor,(The anchor symbolises the tact that colony of French Cochinchina was initially under the supervision of the Ministry of the Navy and the Colonies.) and the removal of the Gallic cock on the rudder. Furthermore, and of symbolic importance, the urn symbolising universal suffrage on the French Great Seal was omitted from the colonial seal.
Influences:

Other illustrations of this seal could be found at "File:French Indo-Chinese (Protectorate of Annam) passport issued to a Chinese national (1925).jpg" and "File:1 Piastre de Commerce - French Indo-China (1922) Art-Hanoi 02.jpg". I have also found it a lot on French Indo-Chinese documents, but then it's too small to be useful. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:34, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s)
The seal of French Indochina was File:Emblem of the Gouvernement général de l'Indochine.svg, similar to the other French colonies. The image here is just the French seal (or a variant of it).--Antemister (talk) 22:50, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
@Antemister: It is indeed a variant of the French Great Seal specifically made for French Cochin-China / French Indo-China, notice the deliberate inclusion of rice and the anchor while other symbols were excluded. The seal you mention was only used by the government-general, while this seal appears on multiple documents (both civil and military), it is used on coins, and appears on its passports. Last time I checked the latter is how modern national emblems are used. If it's a variant of the great French seal specifically made for Indo-China, then it's the Indo-Chinese seal. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 23:37, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
@Antemister: , I took the "similar to the other French colonies" at face value, but looking for symbols of French West Africa, French Somaliland, Etc. I found that French Madagascar and French Equatorial Africa indeed have such emblems, like "File:Seal of the Government-General of Madagascar.svg", but French protectorates like Tunisia and Morocco had their own coats of arms. The Syrian Federation had no emblem, neither did French West Africa and French Somaliland. My research so far has been superficial, but the French didn't maintain a singular policy on overseas heraldry like for example Germany or the United Kingdom for their overseas territories. Also, French Indo-China wasn't a colony, French Cochin-China was a colony, Cambodia, Annam, Tonkin, and Laos were all protectorates, often in a Federal structure with subprotectorates like the Kingdom of Champassak and the Taï Federation of 12 Tribes within other protectorates. De factothey were colonies, but de jure Cambodia, the Nguyễn Dynasty, and Laos were countries under "French protection" (like Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Fezzan, Etc.). --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:22, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

It's best to use the above link and then remove the year. The author of the seal is called Jean-Auguste Barre. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:12, 13 March 2021 (UTC) .

I would like to request SVG images of the Nguyễn Lords and the Nguyễn Dynasty seals, the inscription of the Nguyễn Lords (and early Nguyễn dynasty) seal is {Đại} Việt quốc Nguyễn Chúa vĩnh trấn chi bảo (大越國阮主永鎮之寶, "Seal of the eternal government of the Nguyễn Lords of the Great kingdom of Viêt") and the inscription of the Nguyễn Dynasty seal is Đại Nam thụ thiên vĩnh mệnh truyền quốc tỷ (大南受天永命傳國璽, "The Great South has the Mandate of Heaven forever and ever, this jade seal is for the transmission of the legacy of the Empire").

 Addendum, I also added the seal of the Bảo Đại Emperor when he was the Chief of State of Vietnam for conversion as it falls within a similar scope. For context the inscription reads "Quốc gia Việt-Nam - Đức Bảo Đại - Quốc-trưởng" (written in Latin script) and "國長保大" (written in seal script, Traditional Chinese characters for reference, but these scripts really shouldn't be grouped together as often as they are). --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 11:33, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I did not receive the notification. I will try to do that, but it can be easier for me if there are photos of documents in which this seal is used. Btw wasn't the octagonal version made during the French colonial era? Because most of the old seals I've seen are square.--Urara Haru 麗春 01:53, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
@Lệ Xuân: , yeah, that is why I didn't request it (the octagonal version). I made a mirrored version of it with this tool, though if you use a non-mobile device I am sure that you can use a built-in file editing tool (the ones for Google's Android suck). By the way, what tool do you use to create the SVG seals?

@Donald Trung: I use Adobe Illustrator to create SVG images, which is pretty easy to use once you know Photoshop. In my opinion, Illustrator is a lot easier than Inkscape. The only downside is that it's not free. --Urara Haru 麗春 14:34, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

@Lệ Xuân: , linked above is a better image of the same inscription (though a different physical seal) found in this article (Mandarin-Chinese written in Traditional Chinese characters). I attempted to make the seal in Microsoft Paint on my wife's laptop using Microsoft Paint and Hanziyuan, but some of these characters are really unorthodox. So it might be best to extract the more unique characters from the image if possible.

@Donald Trung: I thank you for your concern, however your version has some problems. "A."; "C", "a" and d of "Card"; and each letter of "Ottaviani" look a bit off. I would prefer if a Wikigraphist could either revise the version you uploaded or make one from scratch. Veverve (talk) 20:41, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
@Veverve: , I understand. I looked at the options on the website and I have seen other options like this one which is more faithful, apparently it defaults to option #2 (number two) which distorts the image a bit. I would advise you to try to use the website to see if you can make a better version and then overwrite the above one. I will try to overwrite it using option #1 (number one) and see if you like it more. I am just experimenting here, so I hope that I'm not wasting your time. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:10, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

  2. I think it would probably be appropriate if the files did have the same ratio as the flags above, unless of course you think otherwise.
  3. I'd suggest something along the lines of "Proposed Union Jack (1604) 1", "Proposed Union Jack (1604) 2", and so on. But it's really up to yourself. :)

@Snow Lion Fenian: From sources linked from the source you've provided, it seems that to be ~consistent with the six Proposed Union Jacks (1604) from 16-18 April, the naming of these two new proposed flags should be as follows:
  • Flag 1: Proposed Union Jack (Scottish, blue fimbriation of white).svg
  • Flag 2: Proposed Union Jack (Scottish, blue on red, before 1617).svg
Please provide naming instructions or principles.

@Goran tek-en: , Excuse me, I thought that "File:Emblem of South Vietnam (1963-1975).svg" with the description "Basically this image, but with the shape of the earlier one." explained it well, I should have been more clear. The three crimson bars on the blazon extend all the way to the edges, as is visible in the other images.

I saw another version of the arms on this page (image), is it possible to create that one? -- Great Brightstar (talk) 15:56, 28 April 2021 (UTC)


I've actually uploaded that image days before you mentioned it here, here it is for (future) reference in case that one ever becomes "a deadlink".

@Great Brightstar: , that is not the coat of arms of the Provisional Central Government of of the Republic of Việt Nam, it was issued later during the State of Vietnam. I wasn't sure if it was a national coat of arms or simply the logo of the State of Vietnam Postal Service. If you wish to request it to be created as a coat of arms then please request it in a new section, please do not remove "section resolved" template unless the new information is directly relevant to the concerned topic. I understand why you thought so, but this "souvenir bloc(k)" was issued đuring the State of Vietnam period, so it is not even about the same government. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:49, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Rendering issue, for an Inkscape generated .svg

Article(s):

Request for this .svg file on commons
Request
Hi,
I've some trouble with a .svg generated with Inkscape:
  1. Sample .png file generated to be displayed on Commons is not as expected (see 2020_PANGO_Mutation_prevalence_across_lineages-en.svg, the thumbnail above), as well as the same file displayed in MediaViewer (a .png image also, I suppose).
  2. correct, expected, rendering is done either with:
    • Chrome v90.0.4430.93 x64, see PNG_Test.png archive: [21]
    • Firefox v88.0 x64, see PNG_Test.png archive: [22]
    (but not the same resolution!)
  3. but there are some problems with:
    • Chromium v32.0.1700.6, or
    • Safari windows v5.1.7
    (they have the same rendering) see PNG_Test.png archive: [23]
  4. and, with Pale Moon v29.2.0 x64, it's almost correct (sorry, no picture at this time, some vertical offset, on text above grid map)
Images above are screenshots of the displays generated by the aforementioned browsers.
Moreover, I've trouble with Inkscape to generate proper .svg to be correctly displayed in either Chrome or Firefox.
I'm due to offset to the two top-right text-blocks (red & orange) to the right to have a correct rendering.
Screen copy of Inkscape layout can be seen in PNG_Test.png archive: [24]
A bit of information: I've edited some .svg text code manually, to suppress some xhtml/css. Then editing and (cleaning) with Inkscape.
Please, I need help or advice to locate my errors.
thanks, yours, --En rouge (talk) 14:51, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, it's not clear to me exactly which parts don't render properly. You may want to read through Wikipedia:SVG help (especially the "font-family issues" section), and maybe ask for help there. There is an ongoing problem with svg font rendering on Wikimedia/Wikipedia at smaller font sizes; I'm not sure if that's at the source of the problem you're referring to. RCraig09 (talk) 15:29, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
The file is overly complex. It has embedded svg elements. For example, the main title is embedded. On top of that, there is spurious text, so the SVG does not validate. Glrx (talk) 20:02, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
@Glrx: OK, it's why I'm asking some help En rouge (talk) 21:53, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
It's a huge, complex file now, and it might be wiser to write it manually with simple svg code rather than using Inkscape. However, that task wouldn't be trivial either, so I ask: Which article(s) would the graphic be used in, and what is its significance? Its usefulness and importance might inspire someone here to create a simpler file. RCraig09 (talk) 04:09, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

  •  Comment, @RCraig09: , excuse me for bothering you again, but I did not notice this until recently, but apparently at the Bảo (寶) character (bottom-left) there should be two (2) dots, somewhat similar to "File:Seal of emperor of the Korean Empire.svg". I'm also deliberately not unmarking this section as resolved, as this ain't such a big deal, but I just wanted to point this out and request a correction when you have time for it. It isn't something that requires quick fixing and if you're busy with other projects then I would recommend that you would do them first as this is such a minor thing. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:56, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Comparing it with the Korean seal, I also noticed that in the Bảo (寶) character, there shouldn't be two (2) Vương's (王), but a "缶" ("phẫu", "phễu", "quán", and "phữu"), perhaps it is best to "copy" that from the Korean seal and replace the right Vương (王) component with it. Neither should the Bảo (寶) character be pointy, maybe just copy the entire "Bo" (寶, Bảo) character from the imperial Korean seal and just replace the one frol from the Imperial Vietnamese one, the rest of the characters are all fine. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: I don't understand.
(1) Do you want the new image to be different from the seal in File:Hoàng Đế chi bảo (皇帝之寶) 13 June 1991.png? ... and more like the Korean seal?
(2) I don't see a 缶 or a 寶 in the Korean seal. Please specify: lower left, lower right, upper left, upper right — for both the Nguyễn Dynasty seal and for the Korean seal.
I will wait for your answers. — RCraig09 (talk) 02:13, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
@RCraig09: the lower left seal symbol is missing two dots on the bottom line -- essential two feet. The feet are present in the left gallery image and the right gallery image but not the middle gallery image. Glrx (talk) 02:25, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
@Glrx: Version 4 has the two dots. When you refresh your browseer, by-pass your cache memory (command-shift-R on Mac, maybe control-shift-R on Windows), and the dots should appear. I will await your answers to (1) and (2) above. —RCraig09 (talk) 04:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
@RCraig09: , at the Imperial Koreal seal please copy the character at the lower left (bottom-left), if you look really closely at "File:Hoàng Đế chi bảo (皇帝之寶) 13 June 1991.png" you will see that it doesn't have "王王" but "王缶", which isn't easily visible to the untrained eye. Luckily the bottom-left character on the Imperial Korean seal is identical to the one on the print, so if possible it should just replace the current bottom-left character on the Imperial Vietnamese seal imprint. I hope that I have articulated it clear enough now. Thank you for your time. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 07:40, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Request
I don't like burdening people with too many requests nor was I expecting to find this image (as I was searching for the seal of the Kinh lược sứ (or "vice-roy") of Tonkin), but according to a 1941 (Vichy-)French Indo-Chinese book the above image was the coat of arms of the French protectorate of Annam, a better image for graphists to work with can be found on this Bảo Đại period badge of the Annamese Imperial Guard. If possible I would like to have an SVG version of the above image(s) created. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 00:03, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Donald Trung Is it two different images you want created? A always please ping me, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 18:01, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: , the request was changed after I initially made it, in the original version I only wanted the first image to be made, but now both. This is because the source book, a Vichy French (Nazi collaborator regime) government work, lists both as the official coats of arms of the French protectorate of Annam. Another source claimed that the empty scroll from "File:Coat of arms of Annam - Hymnes et pavillons d'Indochine (Hanoï - 1941) 01.jpg" read "Đại-Nạm" (大南) but a contemporary source has the inscription "Bảo Đại" (保大), both written vertically from-top-to-bottom. So I would suggest perhaps creating three (3) different versions of "File:Coat of arms of Annam - Hymnes et pavillons d'Indochine (Hanoï - 1941) 01.svg", one as a faithful adaptation, one with the inscription "Đại-Nạm" (大南) on the scroll, and one with the inscription "Bảo Đại" (保大). If this is all too complicated then only make the one with the blank bookscroll.
The fact that "Bảo Đại" (保大) was used as an inscription meant that the scroll on the coat of arms of the Nguyễn Dynasty changed with the reign of each Emperor. But the "Đại-Nạm" (大南) would be consistent until 1945 when the country's name was changed to "Vietnam". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:51, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Donald Trung Now we have to straighten this out. Even if it's interesting please just give me the information I directly need to do my part, the rest is confusing me.
At this page 29 there are two images at the bottom.
  1. You want one of the left?
    1. Should it look like that regarding colors, shading, 3d fill etc, no text?
  2. You want one of the left?
    1. Should it look like that regarding colors, shading, 3d fill etc, with text 保大?
    2. By "empty scroll" do you mean the center piece or the "wings" as well?
  3. You want one of the left?
    1. Should it look like that regarding colors, shading, 3d fill etc, with text 大南?
    2. By "empty scroll" do you mean the center piece or the "wings" as well?
  4. You want one of the right?
    1. Should it look like that regarding colors, shading, 3d fill etc? --Goran tek-en (talk) 10:29, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , if possible you can make it an approximate artist interpretation with those images as you see fit, with the empty scroll I mean the thing that looks like this thing in front of the sword. For the file names of the additional files they could be named "File:Coat of arms of Annam - Hymnes et pavillons d'Indochine (Hanoï - 1941) Đại-Nạm (大南).svg" and "File:Coat of arms of Annam - Hymnes et pavillons d'Indochine (Hanoï - 1941) Bảo Đại (保大).svg". Also I don't mean its wings, only the scroll on top of the sword.
I am not really sure what kind of expectation you expect for shading, 3D effect, colours, Etc. I would say as this is from a colour book just maintaining a gold colour is probably the best (historically accurate) choice, the belly of this dragon is probably a good choice for gold. The sun could on the dragon on the right could be some shade of orange as other contemporary images from the Nguyễn Dynasty typically use orange suns. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:22, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: . I understand. Rome wasn't built in one (1) day. Plus I'm not one to complain about that, we're all volunteers here who invest our free time in creating educational resources, so all I can ask of you is what you are willing to give. This is just a hobby so if "real life" has more pressing issues, then that's what should require your attention. I will assume that you will ping me when (or if) you have the time to work on these, just do whatever is best for your own mental well-being. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:39, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
Later updates
Donald Trung I need your help to tell me what those things are in this image.
  1. Mustache type, fins stuff or teeth?
  2. Teeth or fins stuff?
  3. Part of paper roll or fins stuff?
  4. What, part of sword or what? --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 15:10, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , odd, I didn't receive a notification 🔔 when you pinged me. Anyhow, #1 (number one) are teeth, #2 (number two) are also teeth. #3 (Number three) is indeed a part of the paper roll, the "underbelly" of the dragon has stripes, and finally #4 (number four) is the cross-guard of the sword. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 23:18, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
Donald Trung Now I have four drafts for you. Those draft's are PNG versions of the original SVG file's I'm working on and will upload to commons.
@Goran tek-en: , wow, they all look fine and can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. One final request, can you make a version of the Bảo Đại with this colour scheme? And just name it "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) Bảo Đại (保大).svg"? --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:23, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , It would probably "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg" with the traditional Chinese characters "大南" (Đại Nam) as well. If you have any more questions I will do my best to clarify it. The only real change from your current draft images would be making the sword (" The Sword of the State") gray and the sword-handle and cross-guard black and the paper scroll 📜 beige or white-ish with a red border and gold folds. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:55, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
Donald Trung For my questions in this image. #3 Are you sure it's a part of the paper roll because in this new image with different colors there is no such thing? #4 To me the cross-guard of the sword is to the right of me encircling and my encircling really dosen't look like a cross-guard?
Could you please collect the following for each file as it's confusing for me, thanks.
  • Name of the file
  • Description (/language)
  • Captions/s (/language)
  • Category/ies at commons
to be able to upload it at commons. If you don'y know about Captions read here. --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 15:11, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: , Regarding #3 (number three) upon further examination and comparison with the Bảo Đại, Dragon of Việt Nam cover I do think indeed that it is a part of the body of the dragon and not the paper scroll 📜, as for #4 (number four) I do think that it is the cross-guard of the sword, just badly illustrated, as the other image shows that the cross-guard extends wider than the sword which the encircled area does.

Regarding the file titles, file captions, file information ℹ, Etc.

@Goran tek-en: , woah, they look wonderful. The sixth (6th) file is "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg", which is supposed to be identical to "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) Bảo Đại (保大).svg" but with "Đại Nam" (大南) instead of "Bảo Đại" (保大). I heard from a heraldrist through e-mail conversation that the colour scheme from S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam is likely more correct so I wanted to use that one. If it is not too much trouble I would like for that file to be created. I probably wasn't too clear about what I wanted with that file above. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:56, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , I see that you actually wrote Bảo Đại at the blue link, the redlink is actually supposed to be the file at "Đại Nam" as it reads Bảo Đại. Probably override the existing "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg" and then upload the file that is currently at "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg" as "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) Bảo Đại (保大).svg". As you wrote the wrong Chinese characters. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:59, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
Donald Trung What I don't understand is why not file 5 and 6 have the same name except for the last part:
File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg
File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) Bảo Đại (保大).svg
if the name on the paper roll is the only difference and everything else the same? --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 17:17, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , my bad, that is a miscommunication on my part, it is because the image on the cover of the "Dragon of Việt Nam" book is the personal coat of arms of Bảo Đại so it would be misleading to use the same file name for the national coat of arms of the Nguyễn Dynasty, but as contemporary and modern sources claim that the only difference is the Traditional Chinese characters then simply attributing the source for the colours would be enough. This probably sounded a lot better in my head... 😅 --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 17:35, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , just to be unambiguous, my request is to replace "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg" with the same image with the text "大南" and then upload the file that is currently at "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) colour scheme - Đại Nam (大南).svg" with the text "保大" as the file with the filename "File:Coat of arms of Annam - S.M. Bao Daï, Le Dragon d'Annam (1980) Bảo Đại (保大).svg". The image should be replaced first as the Upload Wizard tends to disallow duplicates of existing files to exist.

Vietnamese-style seal of the Government-General of French Indo-China

Request
Hello WikiGraphists… I would like there to be an SVG version of the above seal of the Government-General of French Indo-China. The preferred file name would be "File:Vietnamese-style seal of the Government-General of French Indochina.svg" and it should be in the category page "Category:Symbols of French Indochina". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:38, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
Information request

Hello @Lệ Xuân: , excuse me for bothering you again... But, you provided information for this the last time, so I am asking it here. I have attached an image with all the seal script characters above without them being obscured by text, could you make out what the inscription is, perhaps this would be a better file name.

Traditional Chinese characters:

大法國XXXXXX全權大臣管理

Romanisation:

Đại Pháp Quốc XXXXXX Toàn quyền đại thần quản lý

--Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:43, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: I think the French author's illustration is not very correct. For example, I guest that the numbers 8–9 are Đông Pháp (東法), which means that numbers 9 and 12 are the same. However, the French author had deciphered them as two completely different characters. 6–7 appear to be Tổng thống (總統). But I'm not sure about numbers 14-15. I think I'll post the picture in a Sinosphere group on Facebook. Maybe I'll find someone there who is familiar with this type of seal script.
P/S: The whole text reads: 大法國欽命總統東法全權大臣管理 – Đại Pháp Quốc Khâm mệnh Tổng thống Đông Pháp Toàn quyền đại thần quản lý. Urara Haru 麗春 16:41, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

Modern script (not seal script) using writing-mode: vertical-rl:

大法國欽命
總統東法全
權大臣管理

Glrx (talk) 18:46, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

@Glrx: , Yep, that would be the seal in modern Traditional Chinese characters, unfortunately there are many, many different fonts of Seal script and Việt Nam also has a lot of idiosyncratic fonts (like how many different European countries developed their own fonts for Latin and Cyrillic scripts), so finding the equivalent seal script character isn't always easy. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:09, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
@Donald Trung: . Yes, I do not expect to match the font. I did it to make sure the character order was tb-rl rather than the odd numbering used in the French decipherment. In addition, Unicode contemplates upper plane assignments for seal script. Glrx (talk) 21:07, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
That is the issue with the image, it is a faithful reproduction of the characters as far as I can tell, but I would almost call it "Out of scope" as the scope of Wikimedia Commons is educational content and this image literally makes you dumber by just looking at it (just kidding). The thing with that image is that it is probably done by Googling how to read Chinese seals and "modern" Chinese writing is like Latin script (left-to-right, and top-to-bottom) while the archaic form is usually top-to-bottom, right-to-left or right-to-left (the latter like Hebrew and Arabic). I remember watching a Japanese-language YouTube video a couple of years ago explaining Arabic grammar and writing and the author commenting about how most Japanese people couldn't wrap their heads about how something could be written from right-to-left as it seems like an alien concept to them, despite their parents having known not other for most of their early lives (which is weird if you think about it). Most online resources regarding Chinese seals therefore use the "modern" seal reading methods and it is how Chinese seals are read now, sometimes even left-to-right and then top-to-bottom. Also notice how the author uses Simplified Chinese characters (basically "Newspeak"), this is because if you Google or Ecosia "Chinese characters" most of it is geared towards the People's Republic of China and their Simplified Chinese characters which is as different as Cyrillic is from Greek and/or Latin. Seal script is a special case, especially Nguyễn Dynasty period seal script, the Đại (大) is unlike any I have seen on the online resource Hanziyuan (which I would recommend for finding seal script characters, in fact I would love to see that entire website imported to Wikimedia Commons and the Wiktionary one day), simply searching "大" does show a lot of results but not one like the one here in Đại Pháp Quốc. this image actually does have the correct "font" of Seal script, just not all the necessary characters. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:41, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
Looking at thê Wiktionary page and the Wikimedia Commons category I don't find a single image that even remotely looks like this font. "File:大-bigseal.svg" is at most the closest match and it doesn't even resemble the image. I would advise anyone taking this project to perhaps also upload the specific characters from this font as separate SVG images to Wikimedia Commons (just some advice, not a request) to help future WikiGraphists working on this script out. That being said I wouldn't know how to name this font perhaps "Nguyễn dynasty seal script" or perhaps it already has a name, I just really can't find any examples outside of the Nguyễn Dynasty and French Indo-China. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:48, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: I can't speak English either. "File:조선국왕지인 (朝鮮國王之印).svg" is an imitation of the seal received from Ming during the reign of King Sukjong. It was first received during the reign of King Taejong and was used mainly for diplomatic documents with Ming. It was later acquired twice. After the Manchu invasion of 1636, a seal was used from the Qing Dynasty. During the reign of King Sukjong, the traces of the former "File:조선국왕지인 (朝鮮國王之印).svg" were found, copied separately, and used only for the succession of the throne.--고려 (talk) 07:51, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Question

To keep the discussion in one place I will ask it here, but was this seal meant as the "highest seal in the land"? So would I know if I should replace the seal in the infobox or not. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:57, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: the "Daegunjubo" was used as a function of "Eobo(御寶, Royal Seal)" in documents such as laws and the appointment of high-ranking officials. There was no function of "Guksae" in national documents exchanged in diplomatic relations with other countries.

Guksae(國璽, National seal): National seal stamped on diplomatic and administrative documents as a symbol of national authority Eobo(御寶, Royal Seal) : Royal seal symbolizing royal authority, fashioned to commemorate the presentation of posthumous or ante-mortem titles to them for their virtues and achievements and placed in the custody of the state for rigorous management.--고려 (talk) 13:07, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

@고려: , I think that I understand it now, just to be clear Deagun is "Đại Vua" (大君, "Great Sovereign") in Chinese, right? As opposed to Wang which is "Vương" (王, "King") in Chinese. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:26, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
대군주(大君主, Daegunju) is a proper noun. It abolished the existing title of "Wnag(王, King) of Joseon" and changed it to "Daegunju(大君主, Daegunju) of Joseon". To strengthen the independent meaning and to enhance the royal authority, it was changed to the title equivalent to the emperor. To be precise, the traditional tribute of East Asia - a breakaway from the Bookbong system - introduced a similar system to the king of Western countries, not the emperor.@Donald Trung: --고려 (talk) 14:33, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
@Donald Trung: Daejoseongukdaegunjubo and Daejoseongukbo were used as ‘the seal of state’ for credentials in diplomatic relations with other countries, and Daegunjubo was used as the seal of the king for documents such as appointment documents for high-ranking government officials and ordinances proclaimed in Korea.--고려 (talk) 23:54, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
I'm noticing a trend here, if the seal contains the characters Joseon (朝鮮) then it was used when dealing with foreigners, while it if doesn't include those characters and only refers to "Daegunju" (大君主, Đại Vua Chúa "Great Sovereign Lord" literally translated into English) then it was used domestically. I am not sure which one I should prefer in the infobox. But usually things used in diplomatic documents tend to get preferred, for example most Americans don't know that the United States of America 🇺🇸 has a coat of arms (as they would see that more as something "that belongs at a Renaissance fair") but it appears prominently on their passports and at their embassies. A similar function appear for other "diplomatic-only" national symbols. But usually Chinese-style monarchies tend to have a lot of seals for specific purposes, so I am not surprised. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:10, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
Thinking even further about it, a "Diplomatic seal" would be a better fit for the infobox because diplomatic symbols usually are national symbols as one can only define oneself in relation to others (that is literally what "identity" is), just like the Supreme Ultimate flag was assigned to Korea because of a Chinese (Qing Dynasty) politician to use in diplomatic relations with the United States of America 🇺🇸, and how a royal banner was used to differentiate between the King and his subjects, the seals used for diplomatic missions contain the name "Joseon" (朝鮮). But I do want to create a gallery of royal seals in the article and I think that domestic seals should be necessary in that, but the gallery should be discriminate and not simply include all seals used by the King but "supreme seals". Maybe you can help with that gallery, as I saw that you already added a seal before. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:38, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Discussion

Hello @고려: (Consideration), I wanted to talk to you about a few things as I think that the work you are doing researching these files is awesome. I noticed that you kept requesting these vectorisation with links from Imgur which I assume you added there, if the original documents are scans (so no new copyright © is created) wouldn't it be better to upload those documents and scans of the imprints of those seals to Wikimedia Commons and categorise them at the category "Documents of Joseon"? This would be a better frame of reference for others when they want to look for more seals and / or Joseon period documents to import to Wikimedia Commons.

Also, on Wikipedia for years we have had an edit war regarding an Vietnamese flag dating back to the beginning of the Nguyễn Dynasty, this flag was actually featured on a contemporary information piece that was being sold on eBay, which likely made it a Public Domain scan that could have been imported to Wikimedia Commons, but unfortunately the users in question just linked to it as a source and when the file was removed no reference to it existed anymore on the internet as the Internet Archive hadn't saved the image (only the page), this inspired years of edit wars and just like how the gallery was removed from the English-language Wikipedia before you (thankfully) reinstated it, that flag was the subject of over half a decade of edit wars until someone recently sourced it again. This situation could've easily have been prevented if the original editors uploaded the public domain scans to Wikimedia Commons as a future frame of reference. This is why I would ask of you to perhaps also import the documents with the seals on them to Wikimedia Commons and you can add them to the gallery when requesting an SVG version here in the Graphics Lab 🔬. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:56, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Also, is there an article in the Korean-language Wikipedia akin to "en:Seals of the Nguyễn dynasty" about the seals of Joseon and the Korean Empire and their functions? I think that these SVG files could probably also be added to such an article and I could translate it to English in the (distant) future. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:58, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

@En rouge: From what I can see, they're effectively the same symbol, only the one in the link is a more crude rendition, while the arms is substantially clearer.

Hello! I can make that outline for you. I'm not new to graphics, but I am very new to Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, so apologies in advance for any mistakes in my formatting or etiquette here.

I can make the outline in Inkscape, using vectorizing tools and/or outlining manually. I assume it should look as nice as the other images in the list of emblems you linked to above, so I can use those as examples.

This will be my first graphics upload! Thanks, Bevelup (talk) 17:54, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

 Unrelated: Bevelup only edited Wikimedia Commons for one (1) day, they made a very nice-looking userpage page and their only other edit seems to have been their response above, so I am quite confident that they won't actually make the outline.

Erroneous flag of China (1912)

Article(s):

Request
Could someone please create an SVG file of the flag displayed in this link here, which was incorrectly shown as the flag of China in a set of Player's Cigarettes cards from 1912. Thanks. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 01:53, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Snow Lion Fenian Can we really use that image as a source (not just for information), it has "All rights reserved" on it. --Goran tek-en (talk) 13:08, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

The Flickr page states:
Cigarette Card - Arms & Flag of China
Player's Cigarettes "Countries Arms & Flags" (series of 50 issued in 1912)
#36 China
I take that to mean Player's Cigarettes (en:John Player & Sonsen:Imperial Tobacco Group now Imperial Brands) published the image in 1912, and the Flickr image is a faithful reproduction of that card. Player's published several series of playing cards.
Players is a UK brand. If the card is public domain, then there should not be a problem with the image.
File:Players football hint kick.jpg is a Player's card from 1934. Its description claims the 1934 image is public domain because the artist is unknown and the card was published more than 70 years ago. I doubt that claim. My reading is the creator and copyright holder is not anonymous but rather Imperial Brands. I have not found a specific statement about the duration of a corporate copyright in the UK. In particular, does corporation life 70 years apply, so the term has at least another 70 years to run? I do not believe that would the UK law, but I do not know. (Also, there may be a before or after July 1912 issue.) Even if the copyright belongs to a person, I would not believe that person to be anonymous until Imperial Brands states that it does not know who drew the image.
File:Player's cigarettes 27 Order of the Indian Empire.jpg is a Player's card from 1937. It claims public domain because it has been 70 years since the author's death, but it does not identify the author ("Author: Unbekannt: John Player & Sons"). If the author drew the the image in 1912 and lived to say 1960, then the copyright would be valid until 2030.
Under US law, a 1912 card image would be public domain. Also, modern US copyright law has a 95-year corporate copyright term. Even a 95-year term would not put a 1934 card with an otherwise valid copyright in the public domain (1934 95 = 2029).
To me, the question is simply the duration of a UK corporate copyright. Anybody know the answer to that? 95 years would make this 1912 card public domain, but would put many cards in Category:Player's cigarette cards in jeopardy.

File:Greater coat of arms of South Vietnam (1963-1975).svg, should the dragons be blue?

Article(s): Any articles where the above is already used.

Request
Hello fellow contributors… @Goran tek-en: excuse me for bothering you again over this image, but I just came across this image which was attributed as a source for another image which utilises your work. When originally requesting this image I originally didn't know which colour the dragons were as all Vietnamese-language sources I managed to find said that they were "Màu xanh" (I found several historical blogs, forgot to bookmark 🔖 them), but in Vietnamese "Màu xanh" could mean "Xanh lam" (Blue) AND "xanh lục" (Green), later I found an English-language source that claimed that the dragons were green, so I just went with it. Honestly, I am not sure about the legitimacy of the Flickr image so it requires more investigation before changing the colours.
@Lệ Xuân: You seem to have uploaded a fair amount of media related to the South Vietnamese President Nguyễn Văn Thiệu, have you ever come across a colourised version of the Presidential seal? --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 16:50, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
@Donald Trung: Yes, while looking for Creative Commons photos, I came across some pretty high resolution color photos that contained the presidential seal (Conference with President Johnson 1968; Prior to Paris Conference 1972)
P/S: It appears they used a sans serif font on the seal in the beginning, but switched to serif in the years that followed. Urara Haru 麗春 17:17, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: You are not asking for anything, just talking around stuff, I don't understand. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:32, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: , I apologise. I pinged you because you were the original creator of the image, I should have pinged you when I was done discussing this with others. This section is supposed to be "a research place" for the South Vietnamese (greater) coat of arms. I noticed that Mai Lê Bảo Khang made "File:Seal of the President of the Republic of Vietnam (1967–75).svg" based on a Flickr file, but the Flickr file had blue dragons. I shouldn't have pinged you so early in this conversion. Feel free to ignore it until we have clear answers. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:13, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
I uploaded a new rendering of the coat of arms, I made the dragon blue/green based on the Azure Dragon. The royal/imperial dragons used in East Asia are based on the en:Azure dragon. I am very sceptical of green dragons, do you have any sources which states one way or the other? --Sodacan (talk) 09:11, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
@Sodacan: , there is surprisingly little literature on it, "File:Emblem of South Vietnam (1963-1975).svg" was created in June 2011 and stood at the "South Vietnam" article for a decade, when I found the "Greater coat of arms" I only found Vietnamese sources referring to the dragons as "Màu xanh" (could be both blue or green) while only English-language sources ever called them "Green" and they only ever provided the Presidential seal. The Flickr image above is the only one I have seen in colour (Blue), while the (colour) images Lệ Xuân (麗春) linked above tend to be gold. I suspect that multiple variants of the coat of arms likely existed at the same time and because of its setting most contemporary photographs I could find were in black-and-white. I think that your version is more accurate, but I am not sure if Goran tek-en's version is inaccurate per se, green dragons were used like here. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 11:38, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
I will change it to green then, as the sources use green. --Sodacan (talk) 11:41, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
@Sodacan: , no please, again I think that it's a mistranslation and the only picture we have with a colour other than gold is blue. I think that the colour scheme you made is probably the best. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 11:45, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
I will follow the textual sources, which states green. We can always change it back if and when we find more evidence. I usually rely on textual and not graphical representations. I am not an expert in Vietnamese dragons. But I know a lot about Chinese dragons, the imperial/royal dragons are always depicted in blue. This might not be the case here. --Sodacan (talk) 11:51, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
@Sodacan: , alright, while I disagree with your decision I do understand it, but in this case thế textual sources are translations which can be mistranslations. But as the only evidence we have on the dragons being blue is from that Flickr image I will mark this section as "Resolved", I really haven't been able to dig up any other coloured images. Plus the Flickr image doesn't say if it is the original or a later replica (though the latter is unlikely). While the earlier State of Vietnam dragon is confirmed to be dark blue, I haven't been able to find any online sources showing a coloured image of the coat of arms of the Second (2nd) Republic of Vietnam other than the gold ones are ones like "File:South Vietnamese President Nguyễn Văn Thiệu taking oath of office, 67-0480-A (cropped).png" which are in black-and-white. So unless (untilK) I will find a better source I will mark this discussion as "Resolved" for now. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:10, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
Yes, more research should be done on this, if you find anything just post it on the file talk page. --Sodacan (talk) 12:15, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment, Just some general notes for future discussions (assuming that someone is reading 📖 this from the archive). At this point I am severely doubting the authenticity of "the Flickr Presidential seal", namely the colour difference isn't the only difference as the "dots" or "stars" in the "outer ring" of the seal also looks different from any seal I have found any images of. Furthermore, the sources I had consulted earlier didn't base the green dragons on a mistranslation, they based it on the fact that South Vietnamese Presidential standards from the Second (2nd) Republic of Vietnam had green dragons, so it would make sense that the dragons from the seal would have the same colours, in fact that is literally the argument I used when I had requested the original image. (Talk about amnesia.). --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:11, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Re-pinging @Sodacan: . Used the wrong template above. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 10:45, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
@Donald Trung: SVG files are XML text files, with one declaration for each object (line, rectangle, curve, etc.) You can write the text yourself (like I did for this chart—I suggest you download & inspect using a text editor). Inkscape is a visual editor that generates the XML text for you, though it leaves a lot of "extra stuff" that makes the file size larger than necessary. I learned Inkscape by watching ~20 tutorials on YouTube channel TJ Free. Here is Lesson 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f011wdiW7g . —RCraig09 (talk) 16:34, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

@Donald Trung: Picsvg.com can be useful, but it includes the rough edges and unintended waves of the original png. It does not give straight and clean lines like those in File:Hoàng Đế chi bảo (皇帝之寶).svg. If you want straighter lines (and maybe smaller file sizes), you can ask. —RCraig09 (talk) 22:28, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
@RCraig09: , I was mostly just looking for a way to turn it into one colour as I couldn't find a way to do it in Inkscape and my wife needed het laptop back for work. Picsvg.com actually did work incredibly well in this case and managed to preserve the Seal script characters and square border quite well, actual seals stamped onto documents also tend to have "rough edges" if stamped sometimes so it's not unrealistic. This is Wikimedia Commons so anyone is free to upload a new version if they so wish, but I just made it "good enough" for the Wikipedia article I added it to, especially since Europeans generally didn't tend to produce that many Classical Chinese documents. Overal the results are "good enough". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:33, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

(It's the first image I made with a new chemical software. Saved it as EMF and then converted to SVG with Inkscape. It would be nice if someone could tell me what I did wrong so this won't happen again.) --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 07:06, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)

The SVG file specified the width="107.04mm" and height="32.060001mm". I viewed the SVG in Chrome and got dimensions of 404.55×121.16px. I replaced the width and height attributes with viewBox="0 0 405 122" to specify the dimensions in absolute pixels. (I could have said width="405" and height="122" instead of using viewBox.) That fixed the image.

Using Chrome's pixel dimensions, calculate the SVG file's pixels/mm and pixels/inch:

  • 404.55 pixels / 107.04 mm → 3.78 pixels/mm → 96 pixels/inch
  • 121.16 pixels / 32.06 mm → 3.78 pixels/mm → 96 pixels/inch

MediaWiki thought the image was 379×114 pixels, so it believes pixels/mm and pixels/inch are:

  • 379 pixels / 107.04 mm → 3.54 pixels/mm → 89.9 pixels/inch
  • 114 pixels / 32.06 mm → 3.56 pixels/mm → 90.3 pixels/inch

So MediaWiki is using the older default of 90 pixels/inch (not unreasonable with SVG version="1.0") while your SVG image was using the more modern CSS assumption of 96 pixels/inch. Somehow, MediaWiki and librsvg end up cropping the image by 90/96.

Bottom line: specify dimensions in pixels rather than mm or inches. I do not know what to do with your workflow. Glrx (talk) 17:12, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the perfect explanation! I can manually change the dimensions to pixels for future structure drawings. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 08:47, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

Coat of arms of Portugal

Article: w:Coat of arms of Portugal

Request
The coat of arms of Portugal is now having new look. On presidencia.pt I discovered the newly official rendition of the national coat of arms, which looks have some differences from that depicted on the national flag, for example, the shield is surrounding by a golden border, not in white. It would be awesome if you can make true vectorized image for this version.

Coat of arms of French Cochinchina

Article(s): "en:French Cochinchina" and "en:Emblem of Vietnam#List".

Request
Hello fellow Commonswikians… I would like the creation of an SVG version of the coat of arms of the French Colony of Cochinchina. The preferred file name would be "File:Coat of arms of French Cochinchina - Album Artistique de la France & de ses Colonies (1900).svg" and it should be based on the above blazon. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:06, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
File layout.
  • File description and caption: The coat of arms of the French colony of Cochinchina according to "Album Artistique de la France & de ses Colonies" (1900).
Further information
Note that the factual accuracy of the French Cochinchina flag, which forms the basis of this coat of arms, is disputed. According to CRWFlags.com, In response to a reaction left by Pierre Gay on 13 December 1998, a reaction was written that stated: "The Cochinchina flag was in fact an ensign. Seems that was an older ensign of the Annam Emperors: yellow (as China) with serrated ribbon. The serrated ribbon seems to be wrong interpreted from far observation or descriptions, and converted in many triangles (they are reported somewhat as grey-blue, green, maroon, and black; and now in blue)." Note that this description fills perfectly the coat of arms of French Cochin-China that I requested above, what is further notable is that the shape mostly concerns flags but is here used in the blazon design, while I don't see this as unusual, this coat of arms could point to the globally locked sockmaster's legitimacy in case of the flag. Jaume Ollé further writes: "But after the establishment of the protectorate the ensign was little (or never) used in Cochinchina, and disappeared also in Annam before c. 1885. Afterwards, there was no flag for Cochinchina colony (like no flag for French colonies)." While this is about the flag of French Cochinchina, it can also apply to the coat of arms, if the flag was early 19th (nineteenth), then it wouldn't make much sense that this design would still be utilised in 1900 (nineteen-hundred). Jaume Ollé ends with "Tonkin was a vice-kingdom of Annam. Perhaps the viceroy used his own standard but that is not know for me. I believe that no specific flag for Tonkin was never reported. - Jaume Ollé, 13 December 1998", this is a factually wrong statement, as French Cochinchina was a direct French colony and not under a Viferoy since it wasn't a part of the Nguyễn Dynasty, unlike Tonkin. Misread that... This is somewhat relevant, as the globally locked Sockmaster also uploaded another variant (see above).
Perhaps a note on the flag should be added to this image's description, but the blason quite obviously is supposed to resemble the serrated ribbon of older Imperial Chinese and Vietnamese flags. Does this vexigollogical element have a name that it could be categorised under? Found it, "Category:Flags with zigzag patterns". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:08, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
Not sure if it should be added to a "Coats of arms with zigzag patterns" category, as this would then be its only inclusion. I will leave that up to the uploader. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:34, 18 June 2021 (UTC) .

@MacMoreno: , to make this image look more like this. Unfortunately no examples of the original sketches by Jean Auguste Barre are online, so his brother's Great Seal of (the government of) France is a good reference. There are a number of differences such as "On the colonial seal a sheaf of rice replaces the traditional French symbols for agriculture (a sheaf of wheat), the arts (painter's tools), and science (burning lamp). On the right side of the seal the branches of oak were replaced by an anchor, and the removal of the Gallic cock on the rudder. Furthermore, and of symbolic importance, the urn symbolising universal suffrage on the French Great Seal was omitted from the colonial seal.". But this is quite a major request with only a related reference work. Also as the current SVG already has the correct file name and everything so you can simply overwrite the existing SVG file with a new upload. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:04, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Goran tek-en: A line drawing seems fine to me. I don't know what else we could do with it. I can't find anything else online and this image is from the reprint of an 1850 Dublin city directory. I scanned it at 1200dpi tiff but that is likely not much better than the png I made from it but if you want to work from that I can email you. This image is a section of a street view of part of a street in Dublin but I don't need the rest as I am in the middle of writing an article about this hotel. It was heavily reconstructed or rebuilt a few years after this so without going to archives I think this is it. Ww2censor (talk) 18:27, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
Ww2censor I will make a line drawing first and then I might make one with surfaces from that.
  • What are the numbers at the bottom?
  • Is the hotel the part between 20,5-22,5?
  • Could you write here the texts that are on the different building.
  • Do you have any idea of how the decorations besides the word IMPERIAL looked like?
  • When you talk about scans or any resolution within the digital world it's ppi (pixel per inch), dpi (dots per inch) is for the physical world, printing were dot is the smallest point a particular "printing machine" can produce.

@Goran tek-en:
The directory is 1850, but File:Dublin Sackville Street 1853.jpg shows a bigger hotel. Was it rebuilt or is the directory just an impression? See Category:Imperial Hotel, Dublin. A 1916 image of Imperial Hotel Dublin on Sackville Street is much larger: https://repository.dri.ie/catalog/3b5918699
Glrx (talk) 20:11, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
  • @Goran tek-en: As Glrx states they are the street numbers and the hotel is 21 and 22.
  • Those look like imperial crowns above the doors and some sort of flourish in the areas either side but I have no idea what. Just fudge it. I would not use the crown Glrx mentioned but the one in this crest w:File:UK Government Crown Crest.svg
  • I would leave out the names above the buildings but on the right building it is indeed G MITCHELL and HAVANNAH CIGARS and WALSH is obvious next door.
  • In the draft I am working on, as linked above, w:User:Ww2censor/Sandbox2#History you can discover the hotel was rebuilt in 1853 and again in 1902.

Goran tek-en: that's a great start. I would keep the pavement in front as well as the street numbers, possibly also use a heavier outline as this one looks extremely thin; perhaps at least double the point size. The crowns above the doors look really weird. Just use the one I linked File:Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom 1952-12-13.jpg and maybe just ignore the flourish either side though they might actually be reduced size simplified rampant lion and unicorn from that crest. Otherwise good work. Thanks Ww2censor (talk) 22:24, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
Ww2censor
Goran tek-en: You are correct that I linked to the wrong file and while you say this file w:File:UK Government Crown Crest.svg is not usable, being non-free though that is debatable) I was only referring to the crown element which, in it basic form, has been used for a long time, so there should be no problem. I suppose the crown elements from the one you found will be fine too. However you have added the complete crest which is clearly not on the original which just has the crown and some sort of flourish on either side, it does not show the full crest. The two panels either side of the crown are rather unidentifiable and placing the unicorn and lion there so clearly seems too much of artistic license to me. I would add something less recognisable but I understand well that svg is not an amorphous type format.
I see your current version but putting the street numbers on the buildings implies they were actually there. If you prefer not to add then below, I would put them above the buildings but in doing so you are straying away from the original. Also see what you did with the lines which do look better.
Thanks Ww2censor (talk) 21:34, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Please fix errors in emblem of Garda Síochána

Article(s): en:Garda Síochána, ca:Garda Síochána, et al.

Request
The current emblem for the Garda Síochána (the Irish national police) contains a number of errors.
  • The first error is that the name is wrong. The current graphic says Sarda Síochána. This is likely because the original graphic used the insular G (Ᵹ), which at first blush can look a lot like an S.
  • Letters are inconsistent in their size, positioning, and shape.
  • Text baselines are inconsistent (e.g. the 'na' in the lower left and the 'hÉireann' in the lower right)
  • The triquetras are slightly lopsided. While some of that imbalance is found on the original (in order to make a negative space cross), these are also slightly lopsided laterally as well.
  • The GS letter mark in the centre could likely use a bit of smoothing
As a reference, this is the current emblem being used by the Gardai on social media and elsewhere [30]. This version opts to no longer use the insular G/Ᵹ and moved toward a more anglicised G. This version also makes the triquetras balanced (i.e. isometric) and uniform.
Thank you for your attention. --73.254.89.77 06:45, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

    Graphist opinion(s)

     Request taken by Krupadeluxe (talk) 11:27, 10 May 2021 (UTC) ✓ Done

    @Est. 2021 and Krupadeluxe:
    I'm unhappy with the licensing claims of these images.

    1. I'd expect the 1875 image to be public domain, yet it has a CC-BY-SA 4.0 license. Maybe copyright laws are different in Italy, but border cropping, resizing, and converting to PNG are minimal effort.
    2. I'd expect the 1912 image to be public domain, yet it has a CC-BY-SA 4.0 license. Same rationale.
    3. The 2016 JPEG clearly deserves its CC-BY-SA license. However, the author is stated to be Massimo Ghirardi but the required attribution includes Daniele Fisichella. That suggests the uploader is not Ghirardi but rather Fisichella. The source of the image is "private correspondence". That suggests the uploader (now using Est. 2021) did not do the work but got it from Ghirardi in that "private correspondence".
    4. The 2016 PNG is a derivative (cropped, increased contrast, and format conversion) of the 2016 JPEG. It claims the author is now Daniele Fisichella, but the attribution line includes Ghirardi.
    5. The 2021 SVG is clearly a derivative of the last two, but it claims to be a CC-BY-SA 4.0 "own work" of Krupadeluxe with no mention of any of the earlier images. A derivative work does not erase the rights of the original work. Please follow the rules for CC-BY-SA artwork and credit the original author.

    It looks like Ghirardi may be this person, who is a trained artist. If that is true, then it looks like an OTRS ticket is needed for the last three images. Glrx (talk) 19:37, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

    @Glrx:
    You're absolutely right, my mistake. I've added the missing information. I'm not sure who I should attribute the licensing to though. (Krupadeluxe (talk) 00:27, 11 May 2021 (UTC))

    @Krupadeluxe: Thanks for changing the info for File:Arms of the House of Fisichella.svg. Est. 2021 made some additional changes to show where you got the material to work on (the bitmap images rather than the private correspondence), and she removed the claim that the PNG was a derivative of the SVG. Glrx (talk) 16:10, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

    @Glrx and Krupadeluxe: Sorry, I'm not good with licenses, but you're right, the 1871 and the 1912 images are legally public domain by now, while I (Daniele Fisichella) personally commissioned the 2016 image to the artist Massimo Ghirardi, who made it for me (that's why I chose to include his name in the license), and later I personally retouched and converted the jpg file to png. Thanks, Est. 2021 (talk) 03:11, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

    @Est. 2021: Thanks for the work and the explanation. I do not know Italian copyright law. Under US law, the artist retains the copyright for commissioned works unless a contract states otherwise ("if the parties expressly agree in a written instrument signed by them that the work shall be con-sidered a work made for hire", https://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ30.pdf). The JPEG file probably needs a COMMONS:OTRS ticket to show that Ghirardi has granted a free license. Glrx (talk) 16:10, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
    It needs a ticket to show that he has granted a free license (i.e., he needs to personally send in a statement to OTRS indicating this), or it needs a ticket showing a contract that he has created the work as a work for hire, and has transferred the copyright to someone else (i.e., someone else needs to send in a ticket showing his signature on a contract transferring rights to them). Either one would be fine, but it should be one or the other, I believe. KDS4444 (talk) 04:17, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

    Goran tek-en Surge tank, valve and turbine are looking really well. The shading of the water is great. animation_1-3 is to explain why a surge tank is needed in the first place, but it can be left out, if it is to much work. Can you draw the depth of the upper lake less deep? And double the falling height. The dimensions then do not resemble the reality, but it's easier to understand the problem. --Alex42 (talk) 21:26, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: The Google Drive image has some issues. The aqueduct should not be near the surface of the upper lake; typically the draw is done near the bottom of the upper lake so that water is available when the lake is not full. Also, water drawn near the top of the lake will be low pressure, so pressure drop / hydralic gradient in the aqueduct is more of an issue. Increase the altitude of the upper lake and decrease the altitude of the lower lake. The aqueduct should not be such a large diameter, especially in relation to the surge tank diameter; just a short stretch of aqueduct will overwhelm the surge tank. The narrow inlet to the surge tank means the surge tank cannot accept a significant flow from the aqueduct. (There are orifice surge tanks with restricted inlets, but figure 11.2 of Chaudhury, Applied Hydraulic Transients, VNR 1979, shows surge tank inlets as similar in size to the aqueduct.) The rounded-top surge tank looks like it is closed off at the top; such closed surge tanks exist, but I do not think you intend to show one. The top of the surge tank should not be significantly higher than the upper lake level. The skinny surge tank inlet and fat penstock also means the surge tank will have trouble supplying a increase in demand by the turbine (it takes time to accelerate the water in the aqueduct; do not empty the surge tank before the aqueduct can supply the increaded demand). Chaudhury typically draws penstocks skinnier than the aqueduct. The bottom of the penstock is under higher pressure and can support a faster flow rate. It is not necessary to have the surge tank next to the valve as stated above. Glrx (talk) 23:13, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en and Glrx: Glrx' comments are correct, as far as i can see.

Thanks for your time, Goran. --Alex42 (talk) 10:20, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42, Glrx This is a principal illustration of this. This means that not everything is illustrated in correct dimensions or is actual technically correct, that is a completely different thing. Of course it should be as close as it can to reality but not on the cost of not being legible or easy to understand. So I will use my knowledge and experience regarding this new information.
    Also it would had been great if this information was available to start with as this is extra work to me. --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 15:03, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

    @Alex42 and Goran tek-en: Chaudhury's "Figure 11.1 Schematic diagram of a hydroelectric power plant": "upper lake" → "reservoir", "closed aqueduct" → "tunnel", "surge tank" → "surge tank", "penstock" → "penstock", "turbine" → "turbine", and "lower lake" → "tailrace". To me, "lakes" are natural bodies of fresh water, and "reservoirs" are bodies of water formed by dams; more generally, a "reservoir" is a store of material. The diagram does not show any valves. In the book, Chaudhury uses the terms "pipe", "piping system", "open channel", and "tunnel" to carry fluid. To me, "pipe" is the typical manufactured product or the abstract idea, an "aqueduct" is a man-made usually open channel (Roman aqueduct), and "tunnel" is a closed channel that is cut through the earth. The tailrace is the discharge, and it is important that it not flood the powerhouse. In the en:Oroville Dam crisis, the tailrace (the Feather River) was clogging and threatening the powerhouse. The tailrace need not store water (that is, it need not be a lake). The Oroville Dam has a small downstream reservoir to control the flow down the Feather River. Here are some wikidata items.

    Walchensee
    @Goran tek-en and Glrx: The en:Walchensee Hydroelectric Power Station was model for the image. The terrain is a little bit exceptional there, see image to the right. It is not a blueprint for every hydroelectric plant. I think we should concentrate on the explanation of "surge tank" and the draft does this very well, also explains many other parts of a plant. Things to change:
    • The depth of the upper reservoir should be halved. (as Glrx said)
    • The altitude of the lower lake should be lowered. (as Glrx said) (I tried to use the dimensions of Walchensee, but that was a bad idea.)
    • The diameter of the aqueduct should be smaller to match the inlet of the surge tank. (as Glrx said)
    • The top of the surge tank should not be significantly higher than the upper lake level. (as Glrx said)
    • The rounded-top surge tank looks like it is closed off at the top. (as Glrx said)
    • Chaudhury typically draws penstocks skinnier than the aqueduct. (as Glrx said) This is already depicted correct.
    • Here is a sketch
    Regarding the technical terms:
    • closed aqueduct is not widely used, so tunnel is the better word.
    • upper lake, because upper reservoir is more general. (The Walchensee is natural, but this is the exception, mostly there are dams.)
    • It's no lower lake but a tailrace.

    @Goran tek-en and Alex42: When there is flow, the dashed red line should have a slight downward slope to reflect the head loss in the pipe. Glrx (talk) 18:54, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42, Glrx I don't agree with you Glrx as that dashed line is a level line, it shows a horisontal level to compare two sides of the hill, it has nothing to do with losses in the pipe. That is my understanding. The water level in the surge tank should be lowered a bit more to indicate that lost (lost in pressure) if I understand this process. That is one of the functions of the surge tank. --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 12:53, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en and Alex42: Correct, the red line is horizontal, like a en:spirit level. And yes, there is a loss of pressure in the tunnel. The tunnel should be horizontal, since the rest of the picture shows a high head power plant. Otherwise Draft-2 is fine now. --Alex42 (talk) 17:03, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42 But I was told before that the tunnel should have a larger inclination than my first draft, which I added. So what is it, horizontal or angled? --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 17:18, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: It has to be horizontal, because it is the style of a "pumped storage plant". A minor issue: The top of the surge tank should be flat and not convex. --Alex42 (talk) 17:28, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42 Draft-3. To me the top of the surge tank should be slightly rounded as it's a cylinder and the top inside is viewed a bit up. But I have made it straight as you wanted. Check this now and I will start with the next. --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 18:04, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: Beeing an idealized cross section the cylinder and the water inside should be flat (in stationary state). The draft looks good! --Alex42 (talk) 22:47, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

    Alex42 Here are the next four drafts referring to your sketches. I haven't added the in between that I might add to the animation, that's for later.

    @Goran tek-en: They are fine! --Alex42 (talk) 21:28, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42 I just realized I made mistake on the outlet, it can't be the same all the time. New drafts on the way. --always ping me--Goran tek-en (talk) 16:45, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42 Here are six new drafts referring to your sketches (numbers). Changes has been made within the tunnel, surge tank, tailrace, turbine, arrows, etc. The water flow in tunnel and surge tank has to change when the valve is closed. I have tried to think what will happen but I'm not sure I got it right. So really think and check them.
    @Goran tek-en:
    • 4 Valve open flow. Flow in tunnel is slow compared to penstock (pipe feeding turbine). I'd use short arrows in tunnel.
    • 5 Valve shut. (Real world shuts valve gradually.) OK (but I'd still use short arrows in tunnel).
    • 6 Flow diverts/starves. I'd draw a tunnel arrow bending into surge tank. Penstock has vacuum, but pipe should be empty just after the valve. The water is moving, so the vacuum forms behind the slug of water; the water does not stop instantly and stick to the pipe right after the valve.
    • 7 Tunnel stagnates; the tunnel arrow should disappear because there is no flow; the flow is about to reverse because the surge tank has water at higher pressure. Penstock is empty.
    • 8 Tunnel flow has reversed, so very short arrows should point to the left as surge tank drains back to the length.
    • 9 Stagnation. All good.
    Glrx (talk) 19:09, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
    Glrx Thanks for your information. I will use it and make changes.
    Alex42 I have been thinking, as we are working on this should we not do it for the full cycle: Valve open ⇒ valve closing ⇒ valve closed ⇒ valve opening ⇒ valve open. I think it will be a better animation. I will make drafts and show you if that's fine. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 09:44, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
    Alex42 Here are now twelve illustrations of a full cycle. I have added arrows to show which way the valve is moving. I have also added some informativ text but you have to say if you want it, also when I do the animation it will be time depending so you can read them if we keep them. The numbering now is not related to your sketches any longer.
    @Goran tek-en and Glrx: I am sorry for my late reply.
    Depicting the full cycle is a great idea.
    Also good: the arrows to show which way the valve is moving.
    I have also added some informativ text but you have to say if you want it. I like it.
    The numbering now is not related to your sketches any longer. That is fine.
    Answer to Glrx ideas:
    4 Valve open flow. Flow in tunnel is slow compared to penstock (pipe feeding turbine). I'd use short arrows in tunnel. One possibility, but Goran_tek's pale and dark arrows are also ok.
    5 Valve shut. (Real world shuts valve gradually.) The gradually closing valve is a good idea. And it's nice depicted in 2-3-4.png
    I have a few remarks about 1-11.png but will write tomorrow. --Alex42 (talk) 20:48, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

    Coat of arms of the Lính tập

    Article(s): [[]] (Dunno, Musée Annam socks will gradually add them).

    Request
    While patrolling a Musée Annam sock I came across this addition:
    Now I did my own investigation… I don't think that it's illegitimate (as this Globally Locked Sockmaster is known for uploading a lot of fantasies, but also almost 75% (seventy-five percent) of alk the good flags and coat of arms of Vietnam here on Wikimedia Commons are here thanks to this Globally Locked Sockmaster, so I have mixed feelings about him). As this is what I suspect is kind of the intent of this person I will request this creation here. If anyone doubts the legitimacy of this coat of arms I will be open to research it further (after I am done researching this Globally Locked Sockmaster's other assertions as they make a lot of claims but rather than uploading the sources, which are often PD, they will just make a PNG and call it a day). --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:14, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
    Graphist opinion(s)

    Ciao @Donald Trung: : Drawing soldiers is not a problem, I can't understand how to do the heraldic coat of way, of which regiment is, can you find another coat of arms, perhaps more defined in the details of the drawing? MacMoreno 13:08, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

    Ciao @MacMoreno: , The coat of arms is of the Tirailleurs indochinois (Vietnamese: Lính tập), a division of the French military, the person that requested this image is a Globally Locked Sockmaster I refer to as Musée Annam who has exquisite research skills but less than desirable social skills. While Ecosia'ing it I only found this painting, this could mean that most depictions of this coat of arms aren't extent anymore or perhaps simply not online. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:24, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
    @MacMoreno: , I got AI (Artificial Intelligence) software to make it for me, I am tagging this section as "Resolved". As Musée Annam has been throwing tamper tantrums lately I don't actually expect him to be adding it anytime soon anyhow, but I am sure that the image will serve as a nice little honeypot for his socking. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:33, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

    Ciao Donald, I thought the emblem of the image of the Lính TậP wanted you in SVG, instead you did it in PNG. Anyway I did this ... look: Đại Nam Hoàng đế chi tỷ (大南皇帝之璽) it's ok, or not? sorry for my english.MacMoreno 09:43, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

    @MacMoreno: , I will copy this to the Wikimedia Commons Graphic Lab and reply there (regarding the seal), it is almost perfect.
     Comment Regarding the coat of arms of the Lính TậP, I used Artificial Intelligence (AI) that I had available to me, the ones I consulted could only make raster images and re-create it based on the input (what I uploaded into its database and how it viewed it), it doesn't really see elements but objects. I have yet to find a robot buddy that can turn raster images into "true SVG's", if I did I would probably put it on the top of the Graphic Lab and send all human volunteers home. 😅 Unfortunately the machines haven't defeated man yet so I can only ask them to make PNG images. Your English is fine, I am sure that it will come nấturally to you over time. If you want to make an SVG version of the image you are free to do so, the person that wanted the image is the Globally Locked Sockmaster Troll Musée Annam, he is an amazing researcher in the field of Vietnamese symbolism. So I don't really view it as "my request", but he is banned for life (and beyond) from every Wikimedia website he can't really make such requests without someone deleting them. I managed to make the image bigger (also using Artificial Intelligence) so hopefully it is big enough now for you. But if you want to invest you free time in it you may do so, but I already managed to let a robot make the image and add it to the relevant article at the English-language Wikipedia. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 22:13, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
    @Donald Trung: However (if you have noticed it) the Coat of arms of the Lính tập image has been retouched and the watercolor details are best from previous versions.MacMoreno 22:59, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
    @MacMoreno: , Thank you very much for those improvements, I will copy this to the Graphic Lab's entry for the archival record. Thank you so much for the retouching and restoring the original painter's signature and timestamp. You are a very talented digital painter / digital sketch-artist. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 10:02, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

    Excel .xlsx spreadsheets that automatically generate XML code for .SVG graphics

    Transcluded:
    General concept above; examples below.
    Warming stripes
    (five examples compared)
    Warming stripes bar chart
    Bar chart (vertical)
    Pie chart
    Line charts
    Scatterplot

    I've uploaded .xlsx (Microsoft Excel) spreadsheets that automatically generate XML code for charts in SVG format.

    You simply paste or enter your data into the spreadsheet, and specify image dimensions, number of grid lines, font sizes, etc. The spreadsheet instantly and automatically generates a column of XML code that you simply copy and paste into a text editor and save as an ".svg" file. The spreadsheets produce lean SVG code, avoiding the "extra stuff" that Inkscape inserts. They should save you time in creating SVG charts.

    Feedback and suggestions on my talk page are welcome. RCraig09 (talk) 23:41, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

    The stroke-width is about 1. The stdDeviation="n.nnne-17" is problematic. See https://www.w3.org/TR/2000/CR-SVG-20001102/types.html SVG has properties that use CSS 2 decimal-numbers (not scientific notation) and XML attributes that may use scientific notation. The stdDeviation is not a property. The workaround is to remove the filters. Glrx (talk) 19:06, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

    Flag of Turkey

    Request
    Please review the x-position of the crescent and star, they seems do not match the construction sheet. --Mike Rohsopht (talk) 14:05, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
    Graphist opinion(s)
    I agree. The crescent is shifted by exactly 25px (2.083% of the width of the flag). The star is shifted by approximately 26.667px.
    I created a new file, but I do not have permissions to overwrite File:Flag of Turkey.svg.
    I noticed that two people have created and uploaded "fixed" files in the past. One was okay; one still had the star in the wrong place.
    For better or for worse, I took my new file and overwrote both of the "fixed" files: File:Turkey Flag 2 per 3.svg and File:Flag of Turkey (3-2).svg.MapGrid (talk) 06:16, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

    ✓ Done--Mike Rohsopht (talk) 13:05, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
     Half done

     Not fitting @Mike Rohsopht and MapGrid: sorry but perhaps there is still an issue, according to the construction sheet:
    • currently, the hem, at the flag pole, is ignored in the uploaded file (the "M" measurement int the construction sheet)
    please see the comments of user:Achim1999, and his uploaded file on 2012-05-19 14:30Z
     notes:
    • if hem is not necessary, it shall be documented
    • if hem is drawn, I think it shall be drawn in white (not transparent), to avoid misunderstanding of the drawing
    • in both cases: I think it is probably better to upload a file with a small margin (as in the construction sheet), to have a better understanding of the drawing, and to avoid any future modification
    note to MapGrid: I think it is inappropriate to talk about pixels for an svg file (unknown size). It can only be done if you specify the basic dimensions, in pixels, of the drawing
    Yours, En rouge (talk) 09:52, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
    @user:En rouge, The part we have all been referring to as a "hem" is more properly called a "header".
    1. Physical flags hung with ropes on poles always have a header which sits outside the coloured area of the flag. Usually the header is white.

    Improving flags of Malta

    Article(s): w:Flag of Malta

    Request
    A user sent a request on my talk page for the corrections for the flag of Malta, according to the materials he provided, I saw some issues for the George Cross. First, beneath the Saint George and the Dragon there should be an outline of rose (looks like "Tudor Rose") between two dots. Second, between each arms there should a letter G inserting the Roman numeral VI in serif face surrounding the circle. He found no any proper SVG image that has such detailed drawing, so I hope everyone who have good techniques at drawing SVG cold help to improve these flag images. Also, the same changes could be applied to other SVGs including the George Cross, especially for the coat of arms of Malta.

    Here are some materials gave to me:

    I've just searched the FOTW and I saw a page including comments related to the George Cross, and we also have some photos at Category:George Cross, I hope they would help.--Great Brightstar (talk) 18:08, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

    Kamran.nef There is a small symbol at the bottom of the two circles. Do you know what it is because the image is not good enough for me to see. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 09:11, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
    Goran tek-en It's a simplified version of the Tudor Rose. Kamran.nef (talk) 10:51, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
    Kamran.nef There are some differences between file:The George Cross Medal.png and this regarding inside the inner circle. Which one should I follow? --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:38, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
    Goran tek-en I think following the medal itself rather than the PNG would be a better choice. Because the PNG is essentially someone's illustration of the medal. So I think following the source is better. Kamran.nef (talk) 20:27, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
    Kamran.nef Do you want just the line version like this or a shaded version as well, more like the real medal? --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:06, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
    Goran tek-en I just need the line version for the flag. The line version is pretty sufficient. But it seems one other user wants the metal colors of the medal, below this request. Kamran.nef (talk) 20:36, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

    • Background so you can see where it's white or transparent.
    • This illustration is made to work best in 100% but when you add it to a map it will be much smaller what I can see. So to make a much smaller version work well (you can't always just reduce the size) I suggest you tell which size you need and then I make a version for that. Feedback, thanks. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 13:26, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
    Goran tek-en Fantastic work, thank you so much. The current SVG flag of Malta uses 166.66px for height and width so around that size will be good. Other users might tweak the size in the future but not a lot. I didn't quite understand why the size can not be changed so if my answer is incorrect let me know. Kamran.nef (talk) 14:05, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
    @Kamran.nef: although vector art is indefinitely scalable in principle, in practice some features (line thickness e.g.) often need to be treated disproportionately in order to look optimal when rendered or printed much larger or smaller than the reference design. Flags are often used as small icons, where ‘important’ details can be lost and ‘minor’ features exaggerated, seemingly at random, unless the artwork is adapted to avoid such artefacts.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 23:54, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

The flag also contains text in Arabic, but I couldn't find a high-resolution source.`` The file was made based on the information from there, this source mentions the red version, this Italian website confirms both projects. The flag without inscriptions is not confirmed by any source known to me, but sometimes it appears as an illustration, however, appears information about the missing text. I think this may be due to a wrong flag posted on wikipedia for the last 14 years. Flag without inscriptions should be treated as speculative.

    The source for crwflags is from 1993/4 (the original is here). The source for rbvex is from 1990. Both have a text, as well as an eagle flying instead of the current unmoving bird. So you are right, it seems the flag needs to be corrected, but the bird must also be changed to be more faithful to the source. Veverve (talk) 00:18, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

    @AnsyahF: Hi!
    1. FYI, I've found this picture of the first flag. It corresponds to the french text description #212. But it doesn't seems in accordance with the drawing fig. 212. What is your opinion? Thanks En rouge (talk) 00:14, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
    2. And, what about the svg version of the escutcheon?
    1. @En rouge: At first I didn't believe about that, but I found the colored one and it confirmed your findings. Seems the author don't have the image colored.
      (By the way, your "first" flag is likely originated from Nieuwe Tafel van Alle de Zeevarende Vlagge des Werelts. See the bottom part, third from left)
    2. The escutcheon is taken from File:Coat of Arms of Batavia (1930).svg. Both of these SVG are created by same author. The author said that he took some freedom to draw these coat of arms as long as it fits the blazon (verbal description). So, I think it's OK. AnsyahF (talk) 05:34, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
    @AnsyahF and En rouge: , I found a different "Flag of Batavia" in this flag chart from 1864. It looks similar to the first image, but the field within the coat of arms of Batavia is blank. But note that a lot of the flags in this chart are inaccurate, for example the Kingdoms of "Holland" and Belgium don't typically have their coats of arms, furthermore, I have noticed a lot more errors in the flag chart, but it does show an alternative flag of Batavia. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:00, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

Ever since discovering this page I just wanted to help out in whatever small way I could as I asked quite a lot of requests when I "got started" here and I am trying to expand my Inkscape skills. But for whatever reason I cannot change the proportions of images in Inkscape (which is why I rarely take on flag requests) and I tried to create "as close an approximation" as I could with how I know Inkscape works.

    yours, En rouge (talk) 15:25, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
    @En rouge: . I did not know that but this will be very useful for me. Wikimedia's SVG renderer does not behave like any other viewers including the browsers themselves. It can look perfect but not quite render when uploaded to Commons. It is not often an issue, but in SVGs that show display problems, it is hard to trace the problems caused by their renderer.

    Wiktionary Logo modification

    Article(s): English Wiktionary Logo, potentially other Wiktionary projects

    Request
    I would like to propose a new Wiktionary logo that includes the character
    instead of 维. See here for a discussion I started on this topic at English Wiktionary. One detail is that, as User:justin(r)leung suggested, it would be nice for the character to be set in the same style as it is on the en:Wikipedia logo (ie, to look like
    rather than
    . In text this can be done by tagging the character as Japanese rather than Chinese, and it might also depend on the font. I hope it is not terribly complicated to switch the character from 维 to
    , and I think having such a version would make proposing the change much more fluid. Thanks, --ChromeGames923 (talk) 23:37, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

    @Veverve: , I'm simply using the word Hubert de Vries uses. He's an expert in heraldry, vexillology, and general iconography and he used the term for this type of coat of arms. If you know a better word then please change it. Also, I'm not familiar with the French word for "Achievement". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:30, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
    Dictionary.com defines achievement: Heraldry. the full display of the armorial bearings of an individual or corporation. I'm not sure it's what is intended here. RCraig09 (talk) 19:04, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
    Perhaps the term "Coat of arms" is better in this context then. In Vietnamese we just use the general terms "Quốc huy" and "Huy hiệu" which can be used to translate "Achievement", "Emblem", "Coat of arms", Etc. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 06:04, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
    I’d stick to “full emblem”, “elaborated state symbol”, or something like that; while I get what you mean by calling it an “achievement”, this is a rather technical term in European (esp. British) heraldry, usually implying the presence of such specific elements as a compartment, motto, shield, helm, crest, and supporters. Few of these have direct parallels in most post-colonial republican or socialist emblems.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 01:12, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

    Simplify a crown and change the colour and design of its cap

    I ask someone to: 1) simplify the crown of the SVG by removing all fleurs de lys, the pearls on the arch, and the decorations on the band; 2) also for the crown, turn the cap in red and make it go higher; 3) the crown should be a bit higher above the coat of arms, which means the crown should not be moved and that CoA should be lowered.

    I don't think it's possible:

    @Lệ Xuân: , I can't find anything about fonts being copyrightable in Viet Nam like they are in China (including Taiwan) and the United Kingdom, but I will nominate it for deletion now. I nominated it to have a wider discussion about it, but the issue then comes with the fact that these characters aren't original and Seal script has existed long before Traditional Chinese characters did. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:40, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Please don't waste your time re-creating something that already exists, feel free to upload it once the DR closes, but this request basically only requires us to wait for an admin to confirm or deny my findings regarding fonts not being eligible for copyright © in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:32, 7 October 2021 (UTC)

    New SVG is uploaded! I can make changes if desired, because the original was not clear in all details. RCraig09 (talk) 19:43, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
    @RCraig09: , first of all thank you very much for your excitement to participate, but you made a Zhuwen (朱文, red characters) seal but the type of seal is a Baiwen (白文, white characters) style seal. The seal that user "Lệ Xuân" made in Google Drive above is already exactly what it should look like, but neither I nor she uploaded it because of the current copyright © question. I do like how you made it, but Trần Quang Đức chose to have a Zhuwen-style seal so the colours should be inverted. Again, the SVG already exists, if you want you can download Lệ Xuân's version, but I simply want to wait until the deletion request is closed. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:29, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Donald Trung: Thank you for your explanation. (There is much to learn!) I have inverted the colors for Version 2. My version is native SVG (2 Kilobyte file size). The Google Docs image is really a bitmap image converted to SVG (26 Kilobyte file size). You can use either one as you wish. RCraig09 (talk) 21:12, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
    I have too much things on my mind to try to attend too many requests at once, I uploaded the Google Drive file, while it may be an inferior SVG it is still a superior depiction of the seal (you made the characters "too beautiful" but in the original seal they were "quite messy" which is more accurate). Anyhow, following that admin threat I am not sure how long I am allowed to contribute here so I would prefer to do as much of my work as I possibly can, so I uploaded it, I will add it to the DR so the closing admin can decide. Your version is sufficiently different enough and "original" so it won't be affected by the deletion request. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 22:31, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

    Standard of the Armed Forces of Malta

    Article(s): w:Armed Forces of Malta

    Request
    On this page I discovered an image for the standard of the Armed Forces of Malta. It's based on the national flag of Malta, but looks like a 4:3 flag, on the middle of flag there is a golden De Redin Tower, below the golden tower there is a golden ribbon with the motto FORZI ARMATI. It would be awesome if anyone can make it available in SVG format. --Great Brightstar (talk) 01:03, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

    Could someone please create some heraldic SVG templates of an Irish Wolfhound, based on the images seen here. And, if it's not too much, I'd ask that a number of them be created, displaying the Wolfhound in various different positions (running, standing on all fours, rampant, lying down, and so on). Thanks.

    Admin/Bureaucrat's privileges revocation

    Article(s): Wikipedia:Administrata/Hyrja

    Request
    Create an icon fusing above icons to imply the section when it is voted for privileges' revocation
    We use icons on the aforementioned page that correspond to the admin election section, crat election section and one for the section dedicated to revocations and voluntarily resignations. The third image is not of the same quality as the other 2. It would be nice if we could have one of the same quality, incorporating elements from both icons. - Klein Muçi (talk) 22:26, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

    Klein Muçi You thanked me but I don't know if it was because I took this or for the draft. Please give me feedback on the draft, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:35, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en, hey there! Sorry for not being clear enough. It's the first time I come to make requests in Commons. Thank you for taking my request in consideration! I saw the draft you provided but unfortunately it changes a bit from what I had in mind. I think you have tried to literally fuse them and maybe for that it's my fault because that's what I wrote. But I meant that symbolically. I was hoping for something like the image provided below. That does give the idea of revocation because of the added symbol. The only problem with that is that it is of a low quality when compared with the 2 other pictures. Also, it only incorporates the admin mop symbol, not the crat tools symbol. It would be nice if it could incorporate both. That's what I meant with "fuse", not literal fusing.
    Idea: The mop on one side, the tools on the other side and on the middle there is the Wikipedia logo with that big red sign. Or maybe the sign on it's own, without the logo at all.
    - Klein Muçi (talk) 21:51, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi It's often a problem here. People think one thing and write something else because for them they have a clear image in their mind but I can't see it I can only read what is written.
    @Goran tek-en and Klein Muçi: just a suggestion, but what about showing the mop, screwdriver & wrench in a heap under the puzzle-globe? I’m thinking of the English idiom “to down tools”, meaning to stop working, but it might convey the same idea to speakers of other languages regardless, and without implying anything like barring or forcible removal.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 20:04, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en, the puzzle-globe. I'll link it below. And yes, it doesn't imply revocation per se but that was the closest thing I could find for that. Feel free to suggest a better symbol. :)
    @Odysseus1479, if we're picturing the same thing, it's not a bad idea but does it really imply revocation? Wouldn't it look more like "Evil Wikipedia brings chaos and destroys everything, look at its victims below, the poor former admins and crats"? XD If they lay down there "defeated" under the puzzle-globe. :P -
    Klein Muçi (talk) 21:58, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
    Maybe the mop and the tools (wrench screwdriver) may appear "broken"/"cut" in the middle (in a non violent way) to imply revocation? Like half of them can become transparent? Just a crude idea. :/ - Klein Muçi (talk) 22:01, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi We have those two symbols for cancel, not exactly the same but close (for me, not native English); file:Undcstrmrc cancel.png, file:Cancelled process mini.png. Based on that and else I found I have a new draft, version cross out. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:13, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en, hey! Sorry for not answering sooner. I'll try to be more consistent in answers from now on. That's good because it does include both symbols, which are more or less clearly defined now but it does appear a bit overcrowded. You got a lot of symbols competing for attention at the same time. The cross doesn't work that good especially with the crat tools, given that they form a cross themselves. - Klein Muçi (talk) 22:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi Draft-4. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:46, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en, better. I believe the cross should be more opaque to allow the tools and the mop to be seen better, no? We can also make everything smaller (the tools, the mop and the cross) and center them in the middle of the puzzle globe, to better direct the attention there. - Klein Muçi (talk) 16:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

    Klein Muçi I don't agree on making it more opaque. Actually I have removed (erased) the tools and the mop (i forgot the handle) under the cross to indicate that they have been revoked so making them visible would send the wrong message as I see it. You can't have all of it in the center, it will be a mess. I wanted the cross to be visible as this is the main message, revoked. Think about it, check with someone else and then get back to me. Also realize which size you will use it in, look at the page you linked to, it's small so it has to distinct and visible. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:21, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en, well, if you insist... I'd really like to invite other users from my community to participate in this discussion but, alas, we're a small wiki and I'm the only one who cares about details not related to articles. :P Can you create a draft with my latest suggestions just to quench my curiosity given that we're already at the end? I mean, if not, we'll have to just go on with the upload process. - Klein Muçi (talk) 01:38, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi It's your request so of course I will do another version. I just wanted to explain how I see it as a graphic (image) person. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:36, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi Three new drafts. Both in 200px (image size) and in 50px which is the size at the page you will use it in.
    @Goran tek-en, thanks for the details! The 50px view sure helps. The 6th version looks better because of the cross actually being able to be seen, like you said. I have a small pet peeve though: Can you make the mop have a different angle so that its handle doesn't go out of the puzzle globe? It's somehow bothering me. :P Of course, if that's impossible, there's no problem.
    Also, if we really are to go with this as a final draft, can we choose any other symbol beside the cross itself? Something "softer"? The reason I say that is because that place is designed to be not only for people being demoted for their wrongdoings (for who the cross seems fitting) but also for people resigning voluntarily for different reasons, like not having enough time, etc. (for who the cross seems a bit like too "harsh"). Klein Muçi (talk) 11:05, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi The handle is sticking out because it's doing so elsewhere it's being used. To me that means it's a convention which I didn't want to break, so stick to it?
    Klein Muçi
    @Goran tek-en, the color change looks like a good idea. I liked the blue version the most. Blue is already a color that it is used in graphical elements on Wikipedia and it doesn't denote wrongdoings so... What if we push the cross below instead of it being superimposed on the tools and the mop?
    Similar to how the no-entry sign stays in regard to the mop on the photo I sent in the beginning:
    - Klein Muçi (talk) 12:45, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

    Klein Muçi I have now checked the two categories Category:Wikipedia user rights icons and Category:Wikimedia bureaucrat icons to see how others no looks like.

     Comment @Goran tek-en: if it were me designing this I'd be thinking of a mop whose handle has been snapped, the way an officer's sword is broken during his cashiering from the army. GPinkerton (talk) 14:26, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

    @GPinkerton, yeah, I'd be open to creativity like that. I know that was just a brainstorming idea more or less, but if we were to take it as a definite idea, my only problems with that would be that, as you say, cashiering is used on dishonorable cases while I was hoping for something that does encompass even voluntarily resignation (but that's something I can live without because voluntarily resignation rarely happens and can be considered an edge case) and for the crat symbol (wrench and screwdriver) to be included (maybe one of those tools can be also snapped in a way?). - Klein Muçi (talk) 14:39, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Klein Muçi: It doesn't have to be thought of that way. The ancients ritually broke the weapons of their kings and caliphs whenever the time came for them to die. GPinkerton (talk) 14:43, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
    @GPinkerton, interesting... Now I'm thinking of the Pope's ring being snapped with a cross after he passes away. Side quest from the designing: Do you have any articles on the subject you mentioned? I got interested now. - Klein Muçi (talk) 14:58, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en, the 7th draft looks better than the 8th one when seen in 50px mode. Can you try a recolor of the cross in that in blue? - Klein Muçi (talk) 23:21, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
    Klein Muçi
    @Goran tek-en, the first version is the best. Can/Should we move the crat tools just a tiny bit more far (up and right) from the cross so the wrench is seen a bit more? If not, I believe that's the final draft. It only remains to have it in a SVG format. - Klein Muçi (talk) 01:01, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

    @Wegates: Brilliant work, and thanks for taking the time to do this. Much appreciated. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 19:43, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Wegates: , I have recreated the flag from scratch because your version had some issues:
    1. Your chosen flag ratio of 10:19 did not match the ratio of 2:3 used in source image provided by Snow Lion Fenian.
    2. The lower white stripe was thinner than all the other stripes.
    3. The blue bar extended below the bottom edge of the flag. This causes problems for people that want to import one SVG file inside another.
    4. The stars were significantly larger than those on source image.
    5. The stars contained some rotational symmetry errors in spite of being drawn with 17 significant digits.
    Let me know if you have questions, or if you want further clarifications about any of my comments above. MapGrid (talk) 04:20, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
    @MapGrid: There is a very minor issue, if you look at the 2,560 × 1,707 PNG of the image, zoom in on the borders between white/black and red/white stripes, there will be some greenish color. The same issue can also be found in some of the other flags you made. I think you know why this will happen.--Mike Rohsopht (talk) 05:26, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Mike Rohsopht: Interesting. I was aware that there might be a colour bleed problem, but I could never ascertain that it was really there until I looked at the large PNG images in Gimp.
    I have uploaded a new file in which the green extends half way under the black and half way under the red. This is similar to how you have handled the red square on the File:Flag of Togo.svg.
    In the past, this fix would have just shifted the colour bleed problem to the edge of the flag. Sometimes I have used hidden diagonal lines to avoid painting multiple colours along a single edge of the flag; but that may be unnecessary now. It appears that Librsvg and most of the browsers now have code to eliminate bleeding at the edge of an image... and if this is true, my efforts to often try and paint white before the other colours may be a wasted effort. It used to be that if you looked at File:Flag of the United States.svg which is painted with red before white, there were red hairlines at the left and right edges of the image; those seem to be gone now. MapGrid (talk) 16:21, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
    @MapGrid: I first notice this problem in File:Flag of Malaysia.svg, which avoided it by having a wider canton. Many flags with cantons and stripes still have this problem, including the current File:Flag of the United States.svg. By the way, you may take a look at the blue/yellow boundary of File:Flag of Seychelles.svg and File:Flag of Seychelles (vertical).svg--Mike Rohsopht (talk) 18:03, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

    @RCraig09:
    What is the copyright status of this image? The image is significantly different from the CoA already on Commons.
    It appears you vectorized the image on
    If that is the case, then the vectorization may be a derivative work of that flag.
    That page credits the image as "Flag of Fouesnant - Image by Arnaud Leroy, 20 March 2002".
    That page describes the flag as

    According to P. Rault (Les drapeaux bretons de 1188 à nos jours [rau98]), the flag of Fouesnant, as reported by Divy Kervella, is a banner of the traditional arms of the city. The arms are dated 1426 and can be blazoned as: Sable, a double-headed eagle argent, langued, beaked and clawed gules.

    For meaning of terms, see A Glossary of Terms used in Heraldry.
    As I understand it, there is no copyright on a blazon, but there can be copyrights on drawings made from the blazon. Consequently, the flag could use any artistic interpretation of the double-headed eagle.
    We need to show that Leroy's 2002 flag has an acceptable license or we cannot use it.
    Glrx (talk) 16:12, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
    @Glrx: Indeed my SVG is a derivative work of the GIF that Arnaud Leroy uploaded. However, I question whether Leroy's image has the modicum of originality that warrants copyright protection in the first place, especially since his work itself must by definition be a copy or close derivative of a public domain work, and how "crowded" the field of eagle-heraldry already is. But I've already placed calls and emails through Flags of the World to try and contact Leroy for licensing or further info, so let's hold off on any action. —RCraig09 (talk) 18:15, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
    @Glrx: Update: I've received word from Flags of the World that Arnaud Leroy has not communicated with them "for many, many years".
    - Through further research I've discovered that the historical flag was apparently redrawn ("Redessiné") by Leroy (emblemes.free) as part of a larger project (cyber-flag.net). This history indicates that Leroy merely copied the historical design rather than create his own original design in the manner you seem to describe above. I am trying to contact Leroy through Pascal Vagnat at that project.
    - More generally, the more I think about it, I think that choosing a particular feather configuration, beak, and claws is nearly devoid of the originality needed to warrant copyright protection in the first place. (See these Google search results for how crowded the two-headed eagle field is.) —RCraig09 (talk) 19:58, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
    - Note also armorialdefrance.fr for the same town--showing both were a close copy of the historical original. —RCraig09 (talk) 20:55, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
    @RCraig09:
    If you trace an image for Commons, you need to show the original image has a free license. Maybe Leroy executed a CC-BY-SA license. If you can show Leroy faithfully copied a free image, then that should suffice. Without something more, the default assumption is that Leroy created the design in 2002.
    "More generally, the more I think about it, I think that choosing a particular feather configuration, beak, and claws is nearly devoid of the originality needed to warrant copyright protection in the first place." That is not the way it works. A double-headed eagle is not a simple shape. If someone copies my design, then it violates my copyright. Someone else independently drawing a design that looks close to my double-headed eagle does not violate my copyright. Hundreds of photographers may take similar pictures of a movie star at a press conference; the similarity of the photographs and near lack of originality in taking photos at a press conference does not remove the images from copyright protection.
    Moral rights are another issue.
    I do not like bringing up these issues, but Commons and WMF want to respect copyrights.
    Glrx (talk) 16:38, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
    - Thanks for your explanations, and I understand that the WMF goes above and beyond bare legal minimums. I'm not trying to be argumentative, but in this case it's the "redrawn" ("Redessiné") that's mentioned at the emblemes.free link (above) that makes me think Leroy's is the "faithful reproduction" that you describe.
    - I'm continuing to pursue contact with Leroy (if he's still living) or the current copyright holder, but as an aside: is it acceptable for a Wikimedian like me to create my own design from scratch based on a general description, and upload it to Commons? It's a well-intended enterprise but intuitively it might come off as a bit spam-like in a way the Commons would reject. Is there a written governing policy or guideline? —RCraig09 (talk) 22:33, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
    @RCraig09:
    I do not read "Redessine" as a copy; it may imply much more. Even the English transliteration to "redraw" does not imply a strict copy. If I google the Coat of Arms of Fouesnant, France, I only get a few designs, and Leroy's design is distinguishable from the others. I do not see a similar eagle at en:Double-headed eagle. Leroy may have copied his double-headed eagle, but we do not know that right now.
    As I understand, anyone may create an image from the blazon. It is then her image, and if it is above TOO, then it has a copyright.
    One could also use a free image to create the work. It would be a derivative work, and the additions or modifications to the composite would have to be above TOO for the derivative to have its own copyright.
    Glrx (talk) 17:10, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
    Glrx I appreciate there is ambiguity in "redessiné", but, further: the cyber-flag.net description declares that "Pascal Vagnat and Arnaud Leroy have endeavored to reproduce the emblems of the municipalities as faithfully as possible in the form of vector drawings, a guarantee of precision and quality." These recitations diminish any claim of originality beyond dutiful copying using a graphics program. Unfortunately, my limited searching shows neither person seems to have been active for ~thirteen years and I haven't been able to contact them re licensure, or to determine actual copyright ownership.
    -I haven't been able to find a definitively "original" (out-of-copyright) rendition, outside of possibly being included in a hard-to-find printed book. I'm pondering whether it's more appropriate here to go full-bore {{copyvio}} or to nominate for deletion and see what a consensus shows. What are your thoughts at this point? RCraig09 (talk) 15:25, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
    @RCraig09:
    Sigh. I wish the origin were clear. At this point, I would vote delete in a DR.
    The simple solution is to use File:COA fr Fouesnant.svg by Brieg to make a new version of the image. The new flag would then still hold Brieg's copyright as replacing the background shield with a background flag would be {{PD-shape}}. Once that is uploaded, you could ask an admin to revdel the earlier image as a questionable license.
    Glrx (talk) 17:57, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

    Glrx I've created and uploaded a Version Two (18 Sept) of the flag based on Brieg's 2007 CoA design. Version Two seems crude compared to Leroy's and others, so in the meantime I'd like to initiate a discussion rather than summarily delete Version One (13 Sept); however, RevDel seems to be geared toward summarily deleting a subsequent version rather than discussing an earlier version. Suggestions? —RCraig09 (talk) 22:15, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

    @RCraig09:
    For a discussion, open a DR but in the deletion request make sure that that you are only asking to delete the first version (not all versions).
    Yes, the original version is much better than the current, but that is also why Leroy deserves a copyright if he drew it himself.

    Flag of Jaipur

    Article: w:Jaipur State

    Request
    Please correct the colors for darker ones, obtaining such intense colors was impossible in that era and it's darker today too.

    - Today's flag looks like this [38] (today Maharaja's family uses a different color arrangement), the appearance of the flag in British times is difficult to determine, but such saturated colors are unbelievable, because they cannot be obtained with natural dyes. There were actually more flags, here in the best quality I have found (flag 1922 - 1946 is wrong, green should be in the middle, others are good).

    Vector diagrams for linear patterns of the skin

    Article(s): en:Langer's lines, en:Blaschko's lines, en:Dermatome (anatomy)

    Request
    I think it would be nice to have standardized vector images for the three common linear patterns of the skin (i.e., Langer's lines, Blaschko's lines, and dermatomes). This article has diagrams of all three of them, but you may want to look at several images for each because there's some variability between different representations.
    As far as the styles of the illustrations, the format of side-by-side anterior and posterior views is the most common.
    From a scientific standpoint, one important consideration to remember is that Langer's lines represent a vector field of skin tension, while Blaschko's lines and dermatomes are used to demarcate particular segments of skin. In other words, for Langer's lines, the lines themselves are what's important, while for Blaschko's lines and dermatomes, it's the segments of skin between the lines that are important. This should influence the choice of coloring style. I think it's going to be too complicated to accurately color Langer's lines and I haven't found any images attempting it, so those don't need to be colored. For the other two, the segments should be colored (we don't even technically need lines between them if the contrast between the colors is enough to see the boundaries between the segments, but I'll defer to your judgement on that). The unique thing about Blaschko's lines is that they have a directionality to them, from back to front (i.e., wrapping around from spine to navel), from medial to lateral (shoulders to fingers) and from top to bottom (hips to toes). The image here may show the directionality a bit better for the legs. I'm not sure what the best way to show the directionality of the segments will be, but perhaps shading them so the beginning is more saturated than the end. Dermatomes should be filled with color according to the level of the nerves innervating them, as shown here.
    Thanks, and happy to discuss further. --Rob Hurt (talk) 00:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

    @Rob Hurt: I will really need your help all the way here. So you want three different images each representing different lines; Langer's lines, Blaschko's lines, and dermatomes. So first we will have to find a body illustration that can be used for them all. After that I will check more into each and will for sure have questions. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

    Base bodies

    Extended content
    @Rob Hurt:
    @Goran tek-en: No problem. Yes, let's do three separate images. I think that image is good, but it might be nice to have one with feet pointed down so you can see the top and bottom, and with no hair on the head. There are a few sex differences, but let's use a gender-neutral body for simplicity. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:33, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt:
    • Will it not be hard to have gender-neutral body when doing Langer's lines (haven't checked for the others), to my understand they are following the topographic of a body.
    • I have started to make SVG version of this file:Human Body.jpg because I thought we could do both woman and man, I know it's more work but will it not be better?
    • For the feet, do you mean like those two: top, bottom. That will mean the bodys will be like floating in the air. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 21:14, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: I would be ok with doing either both or gender neutral. In all cases, I'm remembering that these don't need to have the accuracy of a medical textbook, but are more for the public to get a general understanding of the concepts. So I would be inclined to air on the side of simplicity and interpretability even at the cost of some accuracy, but that's just my opinion. And yes, floating in the air like here. --Rob Hurt (talk) 21:05, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt: Yes, I will not over do it (try to). The image you linked to is that the Langer's lines? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:32, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: I certainly appreciate the attention to detail, and I think we'll have to decide what compromises to make. In order, these are Langer's lines, dermatomes, and Blaschko's lines. --Rob Hurt (talk) 16:11, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt: Before I continue I want to check how you want the bodies to look. One is lines and one is shaded for the volume (I know, too much details.) Tell me which you want or maybe both because ones I have made the bodies and the three different lines it's quite easy to move between the two versions.
    @Goran tek-en: I think these look good, and the shaded one perhaps looks a bit more professional, as long as those colors don't end up conflicting with the colors used for the skin lines. I'm in favor of making the illustrations look professional though. Do you have the back of the body too? --Rob Hurt (talk) 17:30, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt: Thanks, yes I have back and front back of male also. I will be back when I have done them all (bodies), might take a while. Of course I will see to so the lines will be visible. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:12, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

    @Rob Hurt: Now I finally have the drafts for the bodies, sorry it took so long.

    We now (if those are fine with you) have to decide how you want the bodies:
    1 Standing all four in one image, A
    2 Standing all four in one image but half-half bodies so they would become two, like the images you linked to at the top
    3 Lying female respectively male in each image, C and D
    4 3 but as half-half and then we can have them without an offset
    5 Or any other version you want
    To really see their real sizes you would have to download them and look at them in a software that tells the level of zoom.
    I think like this, most screens are in landscape and I try to keep the height of images to a maximum of 1 000 px. The 1 000 px is something I assume many screens can view (in a browser window) without having to scroll, to view the whole image. To be able to view as much details as possible I try to keep to this. It's always a problem as you don't know how an image will be consumed but the main target here is within an article at wikipedia but I always try to make them work as a free standing image which can be used in different places and circumstances, this is of course impossible but I try.
    So give me feed back and we discuss how to set them up, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 19:31, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en: I think these look great, and my preference is A. You're making these as vector images, right, so we can arbitrarily adjust the scaling at any point? The more I think about it, the more I think that we should also have a gender-neutral version, just in case someone ever wants to use these images in a classroom or a news article. --Rob Hurt (talk) 21:30, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt:
    • Sorry for not being clear, it's SVG I work in, the drafts are PNG due to rendering limitations where I show my drafts.
    • So they can be scaled to what ever one wants. But, this is in theory and technically. From a view point line thickness, spaces, relationship of stuff has to be edited when scaling much, both up and down. It's the same as text, a 20 pt (or px or what you use) sentence which is scaled to e.a. 180 pt has to be edited letter by letter (the distance between them) to look good.
    • A gender-neutral version is something we will have to discuss after female, male is completed. I have some reservations and points of opinion there.
    • Could you link me to a few of the best images you know of regarding Langer's lines, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt: I have now uploaded the base bodies as a separate file Female-male front-back 3d-shaded human illustration. Could you please check the information on it and especially the credit part with you. Do you want it in any other way just tell me, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:45, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en: I think that file looks great, and thanks for crediting me too. I think it could also be worth posting separate versions of the male and female bodies in case someone wants to use only one of them for something specific. --Rob Hurt (talk) 18:27, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Yeas I think so too, will do in time. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:45, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Look at Female-male front-back 3d-shaded human illustration and Other versions, there are the versions I created. I also think I will create a Gallery for those, I'm learning about it as I intend to create some for "image sets" I have created.
    I have made a change which I hope you approve. I made the female and male the same height, this so when they are used they will work well together e.g. Langer's lines. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 13:20, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

    Extended content

    Rob Hurt, Could you link me to a few of the best images you know of regarding Langer's lines, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 11:51, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en: Sure, here are a few. I think this, this, this and this (https://media.springernature.com/lw785/springer-static/image/chp:10.1007/978-3-319-26863-0_154-1/MediaObjects/76725_0_En_154-1_Fig1_HTML.gif) should be your references because they are based on the experimental data. But for the ease of interpretability, this, this, this, and this are illustrated in a more viewer-friendly way. --Rob Hurt (talk) 18:27, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt I hope you don't get tired of all my questions. I will here describe how I'm thinking around this and if there is something you don't agree with please let me know.
    When I look at your linked images and others I searched for, it confuses me. The lines and the patterns they create are so different in the images. The way they follow the body and how. It also varies depending how close (detailed) they show them. So depending on how large, detailed the illustration is the more or less lines are used. It also seems to me that there is not a fix distance between the lines, within a specific illustration, they vary over the body.
    To me, the way they are drawn more looks like tattoos than lines following the body.
    So I'm thinking like this, imagine you use a string e.g. clothesline with a diameter and you glue that on the body where the lines exist. This also gives me the possibility to show that the lines actually follow the body around the edges to the back.
    • This is the way how I have drawn the drafts. Look at this draft which is in 400% and hopefully you will see what I mean. To me, this looks much better as an illustration but I'm not sure it's acceptable for you.
    • The drafts I will show you (not the final version) will look like those. As always they are PNG but the original file is SVG.
    The difference to the final version is that I manually have edited the lines where they go around the body. It's not that visible directly but indirectly it gives you a better illustration, and that you can sense.
    I actually would see that we could find a way so that the image size could be like the 200% drafts, but will see. Feedback before I continue, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:02, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Do you have the possibility to respond to the above, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 11:22, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Just to clarify, you want to decide whether the lines should be 3D and sit on top of the skin like string, or 2D and just mark the surface? I think that 2D would be better, because it makes it clearer that the lines are actually part of the skin itself (even though we can't see them with our eyes). They represent the direction of skin tension which is continuous, so you could draw infinitely many lines to represent it. I think for this purpose we should just make sure that the lines are reasonably accurate, and that we don't put so many that the image has more visual complexity than it needs to. Rob Hurt (talk) 21:22, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Thanks for your explanation, I will do what you think is best for the purpose of those illustrations. In my "world" (I see most things as an image, which I want to be as beautiful as possible) I would prefer 3D but this request is yours and you know best what you need.

    Those drafts are PNG versions of the original SVG file I'm working in and will upload to commons.
    Those drafts are for proofreading only.

    I need you to check if the lines ar OK like this in numbers, shapes etc. Please ignore them sticking out here and there, I will fix that ones you have approved them.
    If it's fine with you I would like to do one version lying, like this
    Looking at the different existing images confuse me a bit as they are so different in how the lines are drawn, so I had to guess a lot and go by my feeling. Feedback thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:23, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en I think the density of lines is good, but I might change the color a bit to make them stand out against the skin a bit more. I realize that one of the illustrations (as opposed to the original anatomical images) oversimplified the lines, and they aren't quite right the way you have them. I think this image is the most correct, and I would use that as your guide. You can compare it to the others if you want: if the face is difficult to see in that image, this and this should help, and for the body this may help. You can also find other images, but they should generally agree with the first image. Rob Hurt (talk) 00:05, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt
    You should check the number of lines and how they are drawn. The color and how visible they are we can fine tune ones they are fine.
    Thanks for telling me "which image is the most correct" as all the versions are so confusing, much appreciated.
    The ears are difficult in this scale. If you also can accept the lying ones there we have some more room to fine tune if necessary.
    The reason I choose to show the lines like this is because you wrote "that the lines are actually part of the skin itself", but as I said this can be changed later.
    As the female breasts are drawn differently in the images I have looked at I have two versions for you to look at.

    @Rob Hurt Added a second ear version. Disregard that the lines are "sticking out", that will be fine tuned ones approved.
    @Goran tek-en For the breast, I think these lines are the most correct, which is close to what you have in version 2. For the ears, I think we need to fix the base body's anatomy before fixing the lines--can you make it look more like the ear shown here? Rob Hurt (talk) 21:01, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt You didn't say anything about the other drafts and the lines so I assume that you have approved them.
    Ears:
    Breasts:
    @Goran tek-en These look good, though I don't think there should be a line on the nipple itself. For the ears, I think we're missing some of the structures (at least antihelix, cymba, cavum, and helix crus), as well as a definition of where the upper part of the tragus meets the helix crus. The rest of the body looks good though. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt I will add as good as I can but we don't have that kind of details for other parts of the body, especially when you consider how big an ear is and in this scale, drafts in 100%. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 19:56, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt New ear drafts
    @Goran tek-en Great, this looks much better. Rob Hurt (talk) 16:57, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

    @Rob Hurt

    @Goran tek-en I think this looks great. Rob Hurt (talk) 23:28, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Then we can start to decide how the lines should appear, meanwhile I will start with the other versions.
    The lines can be in any color, thickness and opacity.
    I prefer the "overlay" version as here the appearance of the lines are affected by what the body below looks like, in this way the lines becomes more of a part of the body. The grey lines are like rigid and apart of the body, to me. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 10:30, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en I think the thickness looks good, and are you saying that the opacity for the overlay is less than the other? Can you do the gray or a black or blue with slightly more transparency? Rob Hurt (talk) 18:16, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
    Rob Hurt

    Those drafts are PNG versions of the original SVG file I'm working in and will upload to commons.
    Those drafts are shown for proofreading only.

    The ones I call "overlay" is a "Blend mode" between objects on top of each other, it doesn't specifically has to do with opacity. The top object changes its appearance depending on how light/bright the object below it is.
    @Goran tek-en I think the lines look great. Now should we consider adding a gender-neutral version as well? For the color, I like the grey 100 the most out of the ones shown because it's very easy to see. The others may look a bit more natural, but for the purposes of a medical illustration like this, I think the most important thing is the information. What do you think? Rob Hurt (talk) 18:35, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt
    1) You are the requester and if you say 50 grey 100 is the best for your purpose then we go for that. We can always add another version if wished.
    I will need the following;
    • Name of the file
    • Description (/language)
    • Captions/s (/language)
    • Category/ies at commons
    • Structured data/Items portrayed in this file, the Q#.
    to be able to upload it at commons. For the different versions it's mostly the name which changes I guess.
    2) Gender-neutral version
    This is difficult for me. Please remember that English is not my native language.
    • To me we have female and male genders with all possible variations in between, it's not absolutely female or male, it's all variations in between.
    • To not show what we can (all variations) look like is to me to try to "oppress" or "disregard facts" and trying to influence other human beings.
    • How would a "gender-neutral version" look like, which parts is the problem? I think if you ask all the different cultures, religions, country systems, all other groups etc you would get very different answers. So I guess what would be left is an outline contour with flat fill color and how could one depict Langer's lines on that.
    So at this time I will not create a "gender-neutral version" for this purpose. I really hope for your understanding so we can continue with your request here. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:10, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en
    • Names: "Langer's lines_male" and "Langer's lines_female" or just "Langer's lines" if you're going to post a version with both
    • Description: Langer's lines represent the direction of skin tension.
    • Caption: Artist's depiction of Langer's lines present in the skin of a human male. -or- Artist's depiction of Langer's lines present in the skin of a human female.
    • Categories: Langer's lines‎
    • Q1591425
    I probably should have explained it a bit differently, because we might be talking about two different things. To me, gender-neutral would be the opposite of "all variations in between"--it would actually be the absence of any male/female/in-between information while preserving only the information that is common to both/all (to the best of our ability). This would be done not for the purpose of educating people about gender, but instead for the purpose of educating a wider audience of people about Langer's lines, because there are some contexts in which images like this would be less likely to be used for fear of censorship (I was thinking news articles and some classrooms, though of course not in medical contexts). In those cases, I wanted to give people an option to still use a version that they are comfortable with instead of none at all.
    I wanted to explain my view here in case it helps, but if it doesn't resonate with you, then I certainly won't want you to make any illustrations that you disagree with. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:10, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

    @Rob Hurt Now you can find them here; Langer's lines‎ 3D shaded true SVG. If you don't see any problems there this part should be ✓ Done

    • For the "gender-neutral version" I'm struggling. If you search for "Androgynous human body illustration" there is not much difference to them and what we have, the genital parts are toned down in the ones we have here already. I do understand your point but to me the people censoring stuff like this is living in a world which I don't want to be a part of. And it will be so hard to decide how to look e.g. would male breasts be fine but not female breasts etc. Can we leave it for now and return later on.

    Blaschko's lines

    Extended content

    Can you give me a short explanation and link to images which you say is representative for what you want. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 19:02, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en Unlike Langer's lines, Blaschko's lines and dermatomes aren't real lines, but instead the regions of skin between the lines are derived from the same embryonic cell (Blaschko's) or are innervated by the same sensory neurons (dermatomes). This means that there is a correct density of lines for both, unlike for Langer's lines. I think this and this are the best images, but here is another. For dermatomes we definitely will want to shade the skin in between lines like here, and technically the same would be appropriate for Blaschko's lines, but we can decide if that will be too visually overwhelming or not. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:34, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Thanks, why are the lines/areas different left and right side of the belly part in the front view? Should they not be more similar? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:48, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en That's to demonstrate that the lines are slightly different for each person because of stochasticity during embryonic development--it's actually the same phenomenon that causes stripes on zebras, spots on cats, etc. which aren't identical from one individual to the next and aren't perfectly symmetrical within an individual. In general they should follow the same pattern on both sides, but there is some randomness. Rob Hurt (talk) 23:10, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Before I continue I want to check this with you.
    • If you want areas here instead of lines we have to decide that now as it's two completely different ways of drawing and I also want to check if the lines I have here are correct.
    @Goran tek-en Yes those lines look good. As for the areas, if we're going to do it, I think we should make all the areas colored/shaded, rather than some shaded and some not, like you have it. The question is how we want to do the coloring/shading. One option would be to have them all the same color, but different shades. Another option would be to have them different colors, like here. But graphic design isn't my specialty, so can you think of any other options we have? Rob Hurt (talk) 18:16, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt The colored version has another meaning to me, each color show something different than the other colors according to the legend. I think we should try shades ones they are all drawn. But a Blaschko pattern on a human being is a darker color and usual skin color around it. I will do the drawings now, might take a while. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:49, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en No problem, take your time, and I hope that everything is ok with you. Rob Hurt (talk) 17:03, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
    @Rob HurtHi Rob, I'm back (not 100% but enough) and I have picked up the drawing.
    To do each field for blaschko so it can be filled separately is very complex to draw, and with four views it's really a lot.
    So I hope we (mainly you) can think again if we need all fields to be able to fill them individually or maybe we can do something like this and we can also make separate version with just lines if you like. But having one version were just a few fields are filled will be much easier on me. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:49, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Glad to hear you're feeling a bit better. For the drawings, I think it should be fine to only shade in a few sections. Rob Hurt (talk) 17:20, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

    Rob Hurt Here you have to check if those lines a good for Blaschko. Don't think about lines sticking out, will fix that later.

    Draft-1 200% --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:40, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en I think these look good. The only minor question I have is whether it's possible to make the lines look like they attach to the skin better, following folds on the body such as the chest, armpits, and groin better. But if this is hard, it's not necessary. Other than that, we'll just have to play around with the line thickness and color to make them more visible, and decide whether we want the shading inside to be translucent or opaque. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:03, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt I can try to make them follow the actual body more, now I have followed the different images you showed me so I didn't know that they should be like that, but when I think about it, of course. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:10, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt If those drafts not are good you will have to tell me more specifically what you want or even better show me an example.
    @Goran tek-en I think the thing I'm noticing is that when the lines wrap around the sides of certain raised structures such as the trachea, breast, and knee, they should follow the contour of the structure rather than continuing straight undisturbed. But this is a minor stylistic point, so we don't need to spend too much time on it, especially if it's difficult. Can you also experiment with the line color/thickness/opacity to make them slightly more visible? Rob Hurt (talk) 17:50, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt
    • I'm trying to do this but what is strange to me is that all the sources you provided do not have lines that follow body structures, draft-3 200%.
    • Yes we have to start thinking of the lines and the colored areas.
    @Goran tek-en Yes I agree that the other illustrations don’t do a very good job of it. So whatever you can do is ok with me. Yes, I think the lines for Langer’s lines looked good, and the shading could I guess be the same color. Rob Hurt (talk) 04:26, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en These both look good, but I think I prefer the gray one slightly. In terms of which regions to shade, I realized that we should probably include some of the most common ones involved in disease, which would be areas on the chest, back, and forehead/scalp, so maybe we just use the ones shaded in this image. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:42, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt For the chest/front, we don't have that middle line dividing it left-right as the red image you linked to. Should I add a center line in the front views? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 09:31, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Grey-2 100% --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 10:33, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en That's a good point, and we don't want the shading going all the way across the chest--only half. In reality, the way I understand it, there's no hard line running down the middle of the front--instead the cells start growing and migrating from the spine, then wrap around the sides and meet each other in the middle of the front. So if the cells on one side are growing a bit faster than the other, that patch could cross the midline slightly, but this is independent for each Blaschko's patch. Considering this, I think we shouldn't draw any lines down the middle, but still only shade one half of the body at a time. Also, for the forehead, could you move the shading over by one so it only goes down to the eyebrow? Rob Hurt (talk) 17:06, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

    Dermatomes

    Extended content

    The last type of illustration would be dermatomes, which do have a very specific and consistent structure to how they are arranged, and are separated into C, T, L, and S subsets. There are some vector images here already, but they're cartoonish and not very accurate. Can you use this and this image as your guides to overlay onto the base bodies you have? Rob Hurt (talk) 01:04, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

    Rob Hurt There are at least two different ways to label them according to your links, how do you want it labeled?
    We can also do a numbered version and the text can be in the description field? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:59, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en For the labeling, the two different ways you're referring to are either labeling them on the body or labeling them on the side and color-coding the labels? I think I prefer them on the body--even though it looks a bit more cluttered, it makes it much easier to see which is which. But if you have another opinion artistically, let me know.

    Want to check before I continue.
    Two things; the face has no code on it, T 1 where the arm meets the chest. There is a small area also T1, is that correct?

    @Goran tek-en Thanks for checking--the face is here, and here is a better image of the arms. Rob Hurt (talk) 16:16, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt As always, when I check different images they are not the same so really check everything, there are a couple of areas to which I couldn't find code. Draft-2. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:48, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en I think these look good. The ones labeled XX are C8, T1 and the ones labeled YY are C5, 6. For the colors, it seems like the ones used from the shoulders up are a different, more muted color scheme. Was that intentional? Rob Hurt (talk) 18:18, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt I just took the colors from your image, I have now changed them and some others so it will work as well as it can for people with color deficiencies, draft-3. Check everything. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:58, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en I think this looks great for the front. Rob Hurt (talk) 18:13, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt When I look at the two images you linked to, this and this there are some differences (to me anyway) between front and back. I have to draw the areas/lines so front and back actually will meet and continuous around the side of the body.
    • Back has T1, C4,5,6 (shoulders height) which front do not, should there be a difference, if not which to follow?
    • Same with the leg, back image: L1,2 and L2,3. I can't understand how they could run around the body and meet as the front image looks like, which to follow?
    They also have different for the same coded fields back-front but I will change that. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 13:10, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en It's a bit tricky, and different diagrams show them differently. There's also some variability from one person to another. For the neck and shoulders, let's follow this. For the legs, I think those actually make sense to me. For L1,2, you can see how those originate from the spinal cord on the back and wrap around the outside of the hip to the front. And look at where L2 and L3 come out of the spinal cord on the back and the large sliver that they create together on the back, as well as the L2,3 patch on the back inside of the left knee--does that make it easier to see how the front L2,3 wraps around both sides to the back? --Rob Hurt (talk) 16:13, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Yes it's really tricky because now this new "neck shoulders" image doesn't look the same as the front svg image and it depends on how the arms are rotated... I will do my best and then you have to look at them, I also have to go back to the front view and change in that. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:40, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Now I'm so confused you have to check those, both front and back. I still can't really see the lines going round legs and arms but it doesn't matter as long as you are happy. This draft is a mix of all the images you have told me to look at, feedback thanks. Draft woman front back 1 --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:01, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en I think the front looks good, and the back does too except for the arms. This is really what we want to use for the arms. I gave you this for the neck and shoulders, but it doesn't have the arms the way we want. Does it make sense, or are there discrepancies you see?
    Also, are the colors used for the head and neck the same palette as the rest of the body? They seem like they're a different shade, but I might be wrong. --Rob Hurt (talk) 03:08, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt
    The different images we work from doesn't have the same set up of areas so this draft is a mix of all the images, woman back front 2
    Here is an image with numbers which refers to the questions below.
    1. Generally I don't understand the areas which has multiple code on them e.a. C 8, T 1?
    If it's correct and complicated to explain you don't have to.
    2. How can C 8 just appear in a separate area without having contact with the other C 8 area?
    3. If the front view has this area C 6,7,8 should it not also be on the back view?
    4. To me those fields doesn't meet when moving from front to back?
    5. This area just ends/disappears when going round back to front?
    6. This is S 1,2 on the back but L 5, S 1,2 on the front, correct?
    7. L 1 in front is so divided into more fields in the back? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:36, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Four general points to start: first, the diagrams aren't exact down to the centimeter, and there's variability among individuals in terms of which nerves innervate which patches of skin, and sometimes multiple nerve fibers can innervate the same patch; second, some diagrams show the developmental innervation and some show the clinical innervation, and the maps were also determined in different ways throughout medical research history, so that's why there can be differences; third, even though all the nerves exit from the spinal cord, they can surface anywhere, so the patches of skin don't have to be connected in any particular way. Nerves can also branch, and depending on where that happens, it can lead to areas that are innervated by the same nerve that aren't next to each other; fourth, we don't always expect patches to wrap from front to back--each patch has a line separating it from its neighbors, and sometimes those lines can occur on the sides of the body and aren't shown in the diagrams. This should help with the hands, and you can look at A and B of this to refine the legs, but you'll see that some of the boundaries are on the side of the leg. Let me know if you have more questions. Rob Hurt (talk) 02:08, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt I haven't understood that the areas originated from nerves, that explains a lot. I believed that it was areas on the surface of the skin, so now I understand more your points, thanks.
    New drafts and the codes I don't have is marked X1 etc. draft front back. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 19:42, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Good, I'm glad that clarified things.
    Those nerves originate from several nerve roots, and branch in the arm to innervate different patches of skin. But if you want a code for them, it would be:
    X1: C8, T1
    X2: C6-8
    X3: C6-8
    Rob Hurt (talk) 23:41, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt It's not what I want, it's your request so you say if you want codes or not. If you want you can have two versions, with and with out codes.
    Draft for your feedback, check everything, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 10:57, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Ok I think this looks great. Rob Hurt (talk) 01:04, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Should the male illustration be the same or any changes? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:51, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en Nope I think they should be the same. Rob Hurt (talk) 19:18, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt Sorry for the delay but my family is having a bad time, will be back in due time. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:49, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en No problem, that's much more important, and I hope everything works out ok. Rob Hurt (talk) 22:12, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt So now I'm finally back.
    Here you have two drafts and check everything, thanks.
    @Goran tek-en I think these look great. Will you upload them as separate images? Rob Hurt (talk) 22:46, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt That is really up to you, what you want but my intention was to do the same versions we done on the others and then with/without texts.
    If you could provide me with the text for the information part and categories it would be great, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:42, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt A basic file name for the different versions would also be great, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 09:18, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
    @Rob Hurt To be able to upload the files I will need the following information from you;
    • Name of the file
    • Description (/language)
    • Captions/s (/language)
    • Category/ies at commons
    --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 10:34, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
    @Goran tek-en sorry for the long delay--I'm pretty busy with finishing experiments for my dissertation.
    - Dermatomes, male and female, labeled *and* Dermatomes, male and female, unlabeled
    - Dermatomes of the body, reflecting the patches of skin innervated by either cranial or spinal nerves.
    - Dermatomes of the human body
    - Human skin, Dermatome (anatomy)
    Rob Hurt (talk) 16:31, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

    Rob Hurt That sounds interesting to me, if you need any illustrations, diagrams or other for your dissertation and you think I can help don't hesitate to ask me, I would be honored.
    So now I have uploaded them all and you can find them here: Dermatomes_3D_shaded_true_SVG
    I'm not sure if this is all or you want something else, if not this can be marked as ✓ Done and you can put the code "{{section re.solved|1=~~~~}}" (without the ".") on this request so it can be archived, thanks. Otherwise just leave me a message when it suits you. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:02, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

    @Goran tek-en Thank you very much for the offer, and I may actually take you up on that--I'll certainly get back to you if I think there's something that I could use your help with.
    For this request, I think everything looks great, so I'll mark as done. Thanks very much for all of your hard work on these--I think they turned out really well, and that the community will benefit from having them. --Rob Hurt (talk) 00:58, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

    Hello Rob,
    I just now bumped into this (closed) discussion. It's not that I totally disagree on diverse topics mentioned here above! I just wonder if the "discussionists" have any idea on the WHY these Neurological anatomic figures have outward rotated hands etc. I somehow sense a lack there.
    Simple reason is, during the different embryonic phases of fetus there is a lot of migration of bones tissues, tendons muscle tissue, as well as skin tissue, that torches and outstretches each following their own "plan". The peripheral nerves roots (pedunculi) come out of the spinal cord, leaving it via 'holes' between two vertebrae (foramen intervertebrale - I use the Latin name(s), as I learned during my education. - which was not in English. English turns the Latin names upside down in a way I always understand, though sometimes find hard to imitate 😉)
    As during the 9 months of developing muscles and skin migrate each on their own way, the peripheral nerves follow and are being 'stretched out' in order to not break. That all leads to an neural anatomy picture like here portrayed. Therefore, the image used is the only anatomically correct way to represent this.
    Regarding the discussion about male and female half; I think this leads to confusion because men and women differ on details (especially around the genitals). OR there should be two explicit pictures that represent both sexes, a thing many people reject for conservative religious 😓 reasons that have nothing to do with (any) science.
